I did something unbeknownst to me and have made my view constantly follow an object. If i move that object it remains constant in the center of my view while the rest of the scene moves around instead.  What is this setting? I've tried pressing . on the number pad and it did nothing.
I am starting to learn using blender, and at some point I managed to do something to the 3D view camera.  Usually the camera orbits around an object, but now the rotation seems to happen (atleast very close to) around the "camera's origin". Neither the input setting in "User Preferences", the pivot point selection nor Ctrl-Alt-Shift-C (as suggested on some forum) do anything to the issue.
Determine which app is drawing on top of other apps? Is there a way to determine which application is drawing on top of other applications?  For example, Facebook Messenger app can draw the chat bubbles on top of everything, but how do I know which app is doing this?  My problem:  I have an app which is drawing ads on top of everything and I wanna know which app is doing this. Not just to uninstall it, but to warn everyone that uses this app. (I didn't install any application recently and I already verified the recent updates.)  I tried to use the Dump View Hierarchy for UI Automator from the Android Studio, but it seems that the applications that draw on top can't be selected this way.  (Click image to enlarge) Cheese from UHT Milk I live in a town where fresh or whole milk is not readily available. I was wondering if I could make cheese from UHT Milk. If so, what kind of cheese and what method I should use? Or rather, Should I? How to visualize the gradient as a one-form? I am reading Sean Carrol's book on General Relativity, and I just finished reading the proof that the gradient is a covariant vector or a one-form, but I am having a difficult time visualizing this. I usually visualize gradients as vector fields while I visualize one-forms with level sets. How to visualize the gradient as a one-form? Calculating extent of custom tiles? Problem  The picture is just an example of my case, but I am left with blank space on the left when I load all the tiles and I get error message in the console:   Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) http://path/to/the/tile//base/8/6/53.png  etc.     I could guess and limit the extent of the layer, but I would really like to know is there any way to calculate it and also be able to get rid of the error message.  What I know about the tiles?   Originally they are served as TMS They represent png images 256*256 They are in projection: EPSG:3857 In OpenLayers2 they were called like TMS layer In OpenLayers3 (v.3.8.2) they are called like XYZ layer (that includes -y):     var baseLayer = new ol.layer.Tile({   source: new ol.source.XYZ({     url: 'http://path/to/the/tiles/base/{z}/{x}/{-y}.png'   }) });   Thoughts and questions   How can I calculate extent of the tiles? Or in another words how can I find out zmin zmax xmin ymin xmax ymax or whole range of x/y?  What does x/y really represent? Are they coordinates of the left bottom corner or center of the tile? In which direction does x/y increase? How can I figure out x/y of at least one of the tile, for example left bottom one?    (I have modified the question for better understanding of the problem) How to delay or slowly loop commands? Warning or confirmation on new tag creation In retrospect of this , I would like to ask the community how they feel about a warning or confirmation (or just special highlighting) on new tag creation.  Everybody hates stock "are you sure?" confirmation, but a lot of tags get created by mistake (and then used ad nauseam).   For example, I think I might have created the  tag by accident. Assuming the right tag was , there would be two tags for c# 4.0, until they are made synonyms. With a warning, some accidental tags could be prevented. Interpolation of multibeam bathymetry using ArcGIS Desktop? I'm trying to make a 3D map with multi-beam bathymetry (65536 features, xyz), but it seems that the interpolation methods are too rigid. I need to smooth the data so it looks more natural and realistic.   Which parameters do I have to vary so I can get this? How to remove redundant {} from a nested list of lists?

When water climbs up a piece of paper, where is the energy coming from? Take a glass of water and piece of toilet paper. If you keep the paper vertical, and touch the surface of the water with the tip of the paper, you can see the water being absorbed and climbing up the paper. This climbing up is intriguing me. Where is the energy coming from?  Supposedly, a lot of water molecules are moving up and gaining potential energy. This has to be balanced by something. I can think of a few possibilities, but I can't tell which one it is.   When the water molecules dilute into the paper, they are at a state of lower potential binding energy. Some molecular interaction (van der Waals?) is at lower energy when you have a water+paper solution, compared to a water-only solution. This compensates the gain in gravitational energy. The surface between the paper and the water is at lower pressure than the atmosphere. This causes the water to be pushed into the paper by the atmospheric pressure, up until the point that the column of water above the surface is heavy enough to counterbalance. The potential energy would be a result of work done by the atmosphere. Some water molecules climb up randomly and loose kinetic energy going up, and somehow get "stuck" up there. Something else? EM wave generation from different frames of reference How to scale and shift voltage signal? I want to scale and shift my voltage signal by below relation:  $$ V_{out} = \frac {10} {12} \cdot V_{in} - 10 $$  Indeed my primary voltage is from 0v to 24v and I want to put it from -10v to +10v.  I try to use the below circuit but its gain is always greater than 1.    Image from SLOA097 TI.  Does anyone know how I can achieve my goal? I have ±12v and 5v power lines.
