Plotting a function with singularities in TikZ/pfgplots
Plotting a 3d surface in tikz, with a limit to the infinity
I've been riding a mountain bike for years, but I prefer to go longer distances on paved ground, so I think a road bike would be better. When I ask what is a good bike, I don't need brands or models - more like what components of the bike should I look for, and what should I avoid? Additionally, is it necessary to "go big or don't go at all" as far as spending - getting a real good quality road bike for $500 to a few thousand, or should I cheap out on a $100-200 road bike, as it is my first, then get a better one when I'm more experienced? Using same modulus for RSA So I have these two wheels parented to the leg of a robot. I wanna make them spin a few times but they're spinning around the wrong axis. With other objects I could just press R, Y, Y to make them spin right when they're already at an angle, but for some reason it doesn't work with these. Would be amazing if someone helped me fixing this! Difference between pts and tty Possible Duplicate:          I always see pts and tty when I use the who command but I never understand how they are different? Can somebody please explain me this? Excel function that evaluates a string as if it were a formula? Suppose I have a text string like "11+5" or even "=11+5" stored in a cell. Is there a function in Excel that will allow me to actually evaluate that string as if it were a formula?  This would be helpful for another project where I would like to be able to write 'dynamic' formulas in Excel. From all the hard drives I have bought, they never seem to be as large as the advertised size; from 320 GB down to 290 GB, from 500 GB down to 450 GB, etc. Is there a technical reason for this? Does a card that affects 'each' creature affect creatures that enter the battlefield after it resolves? This girl that I'm friends with and have actually seen in person before, keeps posting [on social media] that she "loves when the transfer goes through" and gets $2000-$6000 for free quite often. She said you can make up to $6500 a day. She is not very smart and barely spells correctly. She keeps saying that all she is doing is "transfers" and that's it. So many of my friends are feeding into this crap. So I asked her what it is. She basically said "it's legit" and asked me for my bank username and password so she could see how much money to deposit into my account. I said no way and left it at that. She also said she is not stealing or doing anything illegal. She is getting her friends free money and I think they're naive. What is she actually doing? Is it illegal? I am sure she is incapable of doing crazy money wiring to different countries.   Thank you everyone for answering my question. I am not stupid, I did not give her my information. I knew she was up to something illegal, so thank you for giving me some input on what exactly she is doing. I submitted an anonymous tip to my local sheriff's department. I'm hoping they see it and pursue it, or forward it to the right authorities I.e the FBI or something. "Open shaming of anyone..." Open shaming of anyone who spoke out discouraged responsible dissent.   How does open with shaming work, grammatically and meaningfully?   Is discouraged modifying "responsible dissent? Why are differential equations for fields in physics of order two? What is the reason for the observation that across the board fields in physics are generally governed by second order (partial) differential equations?    If someone on the street would flat out ask me that question, then I'd probably mumble something about physicists wanting to be able to use the Lagrangian approach. And to allow a positive rotation and translation invariant energy term, which allows for local propagation, you need something like $-\phi\Delta\phi$.  I assume the answer goes in this direction, but I can't really justify why more complex terms in the Lagrangian are not allowed or why higher orders are a physical problem. Even if these require more initial data, I don't see the a priori problem.  Furthermore you could come up with quantities in the spirit of $F\wedge F$ and $F \wedge *F$ and okay yes... maybe any made up scalar just doesn't describe physics or misses valuable symmetries. On there other hand in the whole renormalization business, they seem to be allowed to use lots and lots of terms in their Lagrangians. And if I understand correctly, supersymmetry theory is basically a method of introducing new Lagrangian densities too.   Do we know the limit for making up these objects? What is the fundamental justification for order two? Proving inequality $(a+\frac{1}{a})^2 + (b+\frac{1}{b})^2 \geq \frac{25}{2}$ for $a+b=1$ If $a, b$ are positive real numbers and $a+b = 1$, prove that :  $$\left(a+\frac{1}{a}\right)^2 + \left(b+\frac{1}{b}\right)^2 \geq \frac{25}{2}$$  I can see that the value $\frac{25}2$ is attained for $a=b=\frac12$. But I do not know how to show that this is the minimal possible value.  Thank you. Field that is a subfield of own of its subfields Let $K$ and $L$ be fields. We have homomorphisms $f: K \to L$ and $g: L \to K$. Are $K$ and $L$ necessarily isomorphic? How to combine measurement error with statistic error "There is a plethora..." or "There are a plethora..."? How to set systemd for automatically force fsck disks after crash (hard poweroff)?  When I used sysvinit (in Arch Linux) as /sbin/init I used the hack: in the rc.local I create /forcefsck file; in the rc.local.shutdown I remove it. At boot-up rc.sysinit enable force fsck if /forcefsck exists.  How to do same in systemd? Maybe it has built-in facilities for automatic fsck after crush? Is it possible to have the Corruption and the Crimson Biomes in the same world? I was reading on the wiki how there is a chance that the Corruption will be replaced with the Crimson.  I am wondering if when you get a world where you have the Crimson is it possible to also have the Corruption if you bring over corruption seeds from another world and use them. Or would these seeds just get you more of the Crimson? How do I get a list of all subdomains of a domain? I want to find out all the subdomains of a given domain. I found a hint which tells me to dig the authoritative Nameserver with the following option:  dig @ns1.foo.bar some_domain.com axfr   But this never works. Has anyone a better idea/approach random access file in java I have the following fields:   Inventory control (16 byte record)   Product ID code (int – 4 bytes) Quantity in stock (int – 4 bytes) Price (double – 8 bytes)    How do I create a fixed length random access file using the above lengths? I tried some examples online, but I either get an EOF exception or random address values when I try to access them.  I tried some more examples and couldn't understand the concept very well. I'm trying a project with it and will try to explore more on it.  Here is some example data. There might be holes in the data where No. in stock could be 23 == 023.            Quantity ID. No.   In Stock   Price  -------   --------   ------  1001       476      $28.35  1002       240      $32.56  1003       517      $51.27  1004       284      $23.75  1005       165      $32.25   Thanks for the help.
