When I shut down(not sleep or standby or hibernate) the computer the is at 80%. Next morning I tried open my laptop it didn't start without plugging the ac power because the battery level is 0%. I'm sure its not my battery problem because its giving 3 hours of backup on 80%(battery life cycle extension) only and I calibrated my battery too.  I bought my laptop last year. My laptop is Samsung series 3 np350v5c Windows 7 home premium 64-bit and 8 gb ram installed. I just wanna know why this happened and a solution of course.
I have an HP ProBook 450 G2. Every time I shut down the computer and turn it back on after a day, the battery level decreases by about 5%. I'm sure that the computer is shut down, not in sleep or hibernate. I removed the battery from laptop and after inserting it, the battery percentage does not change. I tried updating the BIOS, disabling wake on LAN in BIOS options, and calibrating the battery several times.  Is this drain normal? If not, is it a hardware failure or can I fix it with software?
Is JavaScript's "new" keyword considered harmful? In another , a user pointed out that the new keyword was dangerous to use and proposed a solution to object creation that did not use new. I didn't believe that was true, mostly because I've used Prototype, Scriptaculous and other excellent JavaScript libraries, and everyone of them used the new keyword.  In spite of that, yesterday I was watching Douglas Crockford's talk at YUI theater and he said the exactly same thing, that he didn't use the new keyword anymore in his code ().  Is it 'bad' to use the new keyword? What are the advantages and disadvantages of using it? We are currently working on a windows based application where users capture data. Some data is captured in a table where other data is captured in text blocks. Im currently faced with the dilemma of how to align contents specifically decimal values.  Editable cells in a grid are indicated with a pencil icon which disappears once in edit mode. You will notice that the table consists of various field types, decimals and text. So what should I do and why?  A> right align all cell content  B> left align all cell content  C> right align only decimal values in cells  D> Whatever else you can suggest How to use a special character as a normal one in Unix shells? Proving a limit of a trigonometric function: $\lim_{x \to 2/\pi}\lfloor \sin \frac{1}{x} \rfloor=0$ Why do all SSH-RSA Keys begin with "AAAAB3NzaC1yc"? Can an integrity check be run against a USB boot disk? Illustrating op amp feedback without control theory We are teaching op amps in a high school class, before calculus.  So we can't use control theory to teach how op amps respond.  All the same, I would like to have an intuitive explanation for how a feedback circuit works.  Take the negative feedback, for instance.  Is there a clear way to show how an initial difference of delta between V+ and V- leads to a very large (G(V+ - V-)) difference in the output, which then leads to ...  I'd like to be able to take that argument and show how the voltage of the output converges in addition to the standard virtual short argument.  Can anyone explain it clearly? Why is quaternion algebra 4d and not 3d? Why is  quaternion algebra 4D and not 3D?  Complex algebra is 2D and what is known as quaternion algebra jumps to 4D.    $ i^2 = j^2 = k^2 = ijk = -1 $  Using $1, i, j,$ and $k$ as the base (where complex uses $1$ and $i$ (or $j$ if you are an EE)) which results in a 4-axis space.  Why is there no 3D algebra? What is Hawking radiation and how does it cause a black hole to evaporate? How can I have colored and underlined links with hyperref? I would like the internal hyperlinks generated by  to be colored and underlined.    Reading some of the package documentation, I know that these \hypersetup keys exist:   colorlinks: when true, color the link; when false, draw a border around the link and color that. linkcolor: the color of the link (requires colorlinks=true to have any effect) linkbordercolor: the color of the link border color (requires colorlinks=false to have any effect) pdfborderstyle: keys for the pdf borderstyle dictionary.  I don't know what keys and values exist for this dictionary, but I do know that pdfborderstyle={/S/U} or pdfborderstyle={/S/U/W 1} can change the link border from a box to an underline.   But it seems impossible with this key structure to have colored links (requiring colorlinks=true and colored borders (requiring colorlinks=false.)  Here is a minimal (non)-working example ():  \documentclass{article} \usepackage{xcolor} \usepackage{hyperref}  \hypersetup{colorlinks=false,linkbordercolor=red,linkcolor=green,pdfborderstyle={/S/U/W 1}}  \begin{document} \section{To See}\label{tosee} \vskip2cm \hyperref[tosee]{just to see} \end{document}   With colorlinks=false (the default), the text is black and the border is red.  With colorlinks=true the text is green and there is no border. I just noticed a weird thing in my reputation tab on StackOverflow.    That last question mentioned (but not linked, had to find it via search):   I must have amnesia as I have no memory of ever interacting with this post. I don't even know what xampp and pdftk are so I don't know why I would even be interested in such a question. 2 reputation points more or less is not a big deal, but the fact I got rep change from question I've never seen before is odd and I'm wondering what happened. Feature request - links underlined Why does LD keep outputting "no version information available" On every loading of a lib, I get the error:     no version information available   This lib has been compiled on another PC (ubuntu 10.04) than the one running it (mandriva 2010.2).  $ ldd /usr/local/gnu-eabi-4.5.2/i686-pc-linux-gnu/arm-eabi/lib/libbfd-2.21.so /usr/local/gnu-eabi-4.5.2/i686-pc-linux-gnu/arm-eabi/lib/libbfd-2.21.so: /lib/libz.so.1: no version information available (required by /usr/local/gnu-eabi-4.5.2/i686-pc-linux-gnu/arm-eabi/lib/libbfd-2.21.so)  linux-gate.so.1 =&gt;  (0xffffe000)  libz.so.1 =&gt; /lib/libz.so.1 (0xb77a7000)  libc.so.6 =&gt; /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0xb7655000)  /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb787a000)   Edit: the workaround didn't work. Does Thanos' plan apply to higher order beings? We know that Thanos' plan was to       instantly destroy half of all life in the universe    His plan doesn't appear to apply to lower or non sentient life forms      if it did half the trees in the final Wakanda scene would have disintegrated too   Does his plan apply to all beings more powerful than himself? I had installed VirtualBox but it started giving me problems. So I uninstalled it using:-  sudo apt-get remove virtualbox-\* sudo apt-get purge virtualbox-\*   But when I reinstalled VirtualBox it again resumed to previous settings and started giving same problems. How can i completely remove VirtualBox from my laptop and then reinstall it such that it wont give same problem again? Partitioning with varying partition size Prove that $\sum_{k=1}^{n}k\binom{n}{k}=n\cdot2^{n-1}$ I want to prove the following: $$\sum_{k=1}^{n}k\binom{n}{k}=n\cdot2^{n-1}$$ what I did is(use binominal): $$\binom{n}{k}X^k\cdot 1^{n-k} = (X+1)^n$$ $$k\binom{n}{k}X^k\cdot 1^{n-k} = k(X+1)^k-1$$ now I replace $k$ by $n$ and insert $X=1$ , I will get now $n\cdot2^{n-1}$ what you are suggesting? there is another way to do that? thanks! Force URL link to open with a specific browser I've created a URL link in my dock, however, the link only opens with the default browser. I have safari, Firefox, and chrome (latest being the default) installed in my machine. I'm wondering if someone knows how to default the link to open with Firefox instead of Chrome but still keeping chrome as the default browser.  Note: I'm running Mavericks in my MacBook Pro. System Settings icons missing in 14.04 Macrons appear really wide on all characters, but especially so on the i. Is it possible to make them less wide?  \documentclass{article} \begin{document} Tac\=e, M\=arc\=o, \=unus, f\=\i li\=\i? \end{document}
