It was he who messed up everything.  It was him who messed up everything.  What is the difference between these two sentences?
Overheard on an elevator today,     I didn't realize it was him.   Corrected by the know-it-all,     He.  "I didn't realize it was he."   The know-it-all then went on a rant about how everybody is a dolt for not knowing that.  I swear I have never heard this before in my life.  Is the know-it-all correct?    If so, why is "I didn't realize it was he," grammatically correct?  What rule makes "him" incorrect here?
How to convert decimal to hexadecimal in JavaScript How do you convert decimal values to their hexadecimal equivalent in JavaScript? Prove there are no other solutions of functional equation $f(x+y) = \frac{f(x)+f(y)}{1-f(x)f(y)}$ Prior to doing some benchmarking work how would one free up the memory (RAM) that the Linux Kernel is consuming for its buffers and cache?    Note that this is mostly useful for benchmarking. Emptying the buffers and cache reduces performance! If you're here because you thought that freeing buffers and cache was a positive thing, go and read . The short story: free memory is unused memory is wasted memory. Has anyone had success recovering deleted files from an ext4 partition? I've tried various utilities, but none have worked yet. I'd be grateful if someone can share a success story! I've created a new user by using "User Accounts" in "System Settings". How do I grant rights so that this new user can have the same level of access as root? induction with 2 recursive sequnces I'm having trouble solving this problem. I have relation for two sequences of natural numbers.   $$a(n)+\sqrt3\cdot b(n)=\left(1+\sqrt3\right)^n$$  and I have to prove that recursions:  $$\begin{align*} &amp;a(n+1)=a(n)+3b(n)\\ &amp;b(n+1)=a(n)+b(n) \end{align*}$$  will satisfy relation mentioned above. I tried solve it using induction but I failed. Can anybody help with some other ideas? I understand that this command attempts to write to nowhere or a null device but what does 2&gt;&amp;1 mean here?  wget -q -O - http://yourwebsite.com/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron &gt; /dev/null 2&gt;&amp;1 Why can't I destroy or place blocks? set of almost complex structures on $\mathbb R^4$ as two disjoint spheres The set of almost complex structures on $\mathbb R^{2n}$ is given by $$ M_n = \frac{GL(2n,\mathbb R)}{GL(n,\mathbb C)} = \mathcal C_+ \sqcup \mathcal C_-,$$ taking into account that $\det = \pm 1$ gives two disjoint sets.  How do we show that $M_2=S^2 \sqcup S^2$? Moreover, I'm a bit confused by dimensions: how does $\dim_{\mathbb R}M_2=8$ relates with the latter decomposition?  This is exercise 1.2.1 from the book Complex geometry by Huybrechts. Alternate Row Coloring in Django Template with More Than One Set of Rows A Linear Diophantine Equation is of the following form:                                                                                        $Ax+By+C=0$, where $x_1 \leq x \leq x_2$ and $y_1 \leq y \leq y_2$.  If the value of $A,B,C,x_1,x_2,y_1,y_2$ are given and $x_1 \leq x_2$ and $y_1 \leq y_2$, then how many solutions can be found? How can I find out the total number of solutions according to the above condition. How to use SQLDeveloper to connect to embedded Derby database I've got a project where I'm looking to tweak the standard lead conversion process.   Triggers and lead conversion has always been funky in past projects so I was hoping to start the design off by reviewing the order of execution, but after a long google search I'm coming up empty handed.   Anyone out there know the specific trigger order for lead conversion?    Edit: I'm not asking about trigger execution order for any object, but all the objects created in the lead conversion process.  I'd think it would be something like this:        Lead Before Update Triggers (isConverted = false, convertedAccountId = null, convertContactId = null, convertedOpportunityId = null)         Account Before Insert Triggers (not fired if merged with existing account)   Account After Insert Triggers (not fired if merged with existing account)   Contact Before Insert Triggers (not fired if merged with existing contact)   Contact After Insert Triggers (not fired if merged with existing contact)   Opportunity Before Insert Triggers (not fired if no opportunity) (OpportunityContactRoles null)   Opportunity After Insert Triggers (not fired if no opportunity) (OpportunityContactRoles = convertedContactId)   Lead After Update Triggers (isConverted = true, convertedAccountId = XXX, convertedContactId = XXX, convertedOpportunityId = XXX) Proof that in a field $x=0$ is equivalent to $x=-x$ Let $F$ be a field and $x\in F$. If $x=-x$ and $1\neq -1$, then $$0=\frac{x+x}{1+1}=\frac{1+1}{1+1}x=x.$$ This means that the statement in the title is true if and only if $1\neq -1$. But how do we know that $1\neq -1$ for an arbitary field? This has been puzzling me for a few days now, and I asked a graphic designer I knew before trying here and haven't been able to solve it yet. It's quite weird so please bear with me for a bit.  I am using Adobe Illustrator to create a logo, and I have something that can potentially work. I have used only the pen tool with strokes (no fill), but the issue is, when I view the logo at 100%, it looks pixellated! I know vectors should not even be able to appear pixellated, but they are. Here is the screenshot from AI, without exporting to anything:     That was just done using the snipping tool within Windows, and it's at 100% zoom.  I have anti-aliasing turned on from Edit > Preferences > General, and the document resolution is at 300 ppi (I get the same result with 72 ppi).   Could anyone help me with this?   If relevant: Using CS6, and have a 24 inch Dell U2412M at 1920x1200 resolution. I do have a 21.6" Samsung at 1680x1050 and I get the same result there as well. Let me know if you need any other settings, or if you would like the file, I'd be happy to provide it to be able to solve this problem. I am running Ubuntu 15.10 with Gnome DE.  I installed KDE plasma to try it out but sudo apt-get upgrade started giving me errors so I ppa-purged the kde ppa and removed kubuntu desktop with the terminal in Gnome.  Now when I run sudo apt-get upgrade , I get the following error:    The following packages have unmet dependencies:     kde-telepathy-minimal : Depends: kde-config-telepathy-accounts      (&gt;= 15.04.0) but it is not installed.   sudo apt-get install -f does not resolve the issue. I tried sudo apt-get remove kde-telepathy-minimal to remove the package which gives me this error:    The following packages have unmet dependencies: kde-telepathy : Depends: kde-telepathy-minimal   Attempting to remove 'kde-telepathy' gives me the original error.  I am stuck. Please help me and thank you Ubuntu community! Find the general solution of $4u_{xx}+5u_{xy}+u_{yy}+u_x+u_y=2$ How do I solve the following second order partial differential equation?  $4u_{xx}+5u_{xy}+u_{yy}+u_x+u_y=2$  I have classified the equation to be hyperbolic and changed variables to obtain the canonical form as $u_{\epsilon\nu}={1\over{3u_\nu}}-{8\over9}$ which I believe is correct but I am struggling to find the general solution? A step by step solution would be appreciated. Do any clones refuse Order 66? When the clones are issued      telling them to turn on the Jedi,    do any of them refuse to carry out the order? A term for words that change pronunciation with part of speech In other words, why do we need to connect the battery positive to the negative to get electron flow? As far as I know, voltage difference is what drives current flow.  From what I understand, there's a surplus of negative charge (electrons) in the positive end of a battery (weird I know, but I guess they do it for mathematical reasons). Between the positive and negative ends of the battery is some kind of wall that prevents the electrons from diffusing, so they have to go the long way (through a wire to the other end of the battery) to diffuse and reach the receiver atoms/molecules.  So why not just have the surplus of electrons on one end go to ground to equalize (e.g. 5 volts to 0 volts should produce current)? Why does it have to be the other end of the battery? I'm sure there's atoms/molecules in the ground that could accept the extra electrons (receivers atoms/molecules for the donors in the battery).
