I wonder if I could produce a blank page (not within theme) and write something to it - I need my custom page. I know about WP Ajax, but it's not that simple, cos I wanted to be able to get some data crossdomain (with PHP and regexp) but Im not sure with that.  Simply: I want bypass the theme (and its design) and give a blank page with custom plugin output. (Would be nice to be able to use WP functions)  Is it possible, or I have to use WP Ajax? Thank you    Edit1: I want to add something like post with it's permalink (following permalink structure), but without using theme - just blank page with data created by plugin  I know about including WP into external PHP files. I dont want any external file - it should be working within plugin
I'm trying to make a page where a user provides an ID of a attachment and the site will set the headers and deliver that file instead of a 404 page. so /download/1754 would lookup the attachment with that Id and output it for viewing/download depending on the file type.  I just can't think of a wordpress friendly way to do this from inside a plugin. I considered using add_rewrite_rule but couldn't see a good way around it, also considered checking $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] to deliver the content before any HTML but then I'd have to stop the page from rendering a 404 and I was not sure of a Wordpress friendly way to do this.  My current idea was to have my plugin make a download page, assign a template and have that template run the logic instead of my plugin class. while I have used this before for another situation it was very messy as I had to write a lot of code to force users to be unable to update or edit the file and recreate/delete it on activation.deactivation. so ideally I'd like to avoid that.
Clipping a figure to content LaTeX for Microsoft Surface I have my new Microsoft Surface and I was wondering whether it's possible to install pieces of software like MikTeX and TexMaker on this tablet. Does anyone know? How can I convert a string to boolean in JavaScript? If I could stop ALL motion would I stop time? I've never really understood time. Time is not a force. It isn't energy or matter. Time doesn't MAKE anything do anything. Time doesn't make a clock tick (motion or batteries do). Time doesn't make the earth revolve around the sun (motion/gravity does). I don't think time exists. People say time is used as a form of measurement but aren't we just measuring movement? Even atomic clocks measure the movement of electrons that orbit an atom's nucleus as they "jump" back and forth between energy states. So my question is if I were to stop ALL motion (even movement of electrons that orbit an atom's nucleus) would I stop time? Is time just masquerading as the measurement of motion?  EDIT: This question is not a duplicate of "Does time freeze at Absolute Zero?" Because I am NOT talking about temperature. I am speaking about the motion of ALL things. I am asking if ALL things (photons, energy, matter, forces) stop moving would time stand still? I would have to say yes it would. If ALL motion were to stop for a million years and then start again no one would even know. Atomic clocks wouldn't even miss a step. How does a USB 2.0 Wall Charger negotiate current output? I'm trying to use a mobile phone charger for my projects, and want a high current output. I have read , however my measurements show something else.  is a link to the Battery Charging Specification Rev. 1.2.  1.4.7 Dedicated Charging Port A Dedicated Charging Port (DCP) is a downstream port on a device that outputs power through a USB connector, but is not capable of enumerating a downstream device. A DCP shall source \$I_{DCP}\$ at an average voltage of \$V_{CHG}\$. A DCP shall short the D+ line to the D- line.   I verified on three different chargers, and all read \$R_{DCP\_DAT}\$ as ~1.5 Ohms. Now, if there is a short between the D+ and D-, there is no detection on the charging port side, and the charger should always output \$I_{DCP}\$ {0.5 - 5.0A max} on the VBUS line - is this correct? I tested the current output of three chargers, but they are all completely different. Charger 1 - Nokia Rated current output: 1.3A Measured current output: 1.34A Charger 2 - Asus Rated current output: 2.0A Measured current output: 0.7A - 1.1A (unstable) Charger 3 - HTC Rated current output: 1A Measurent current output: 0.1A If all these dedicated charging ports have no current negotiation, how come only one charger is showing it's rated output? N.B All three chargers can charge a mobile phone in a reasonable amount of time. Why does C/C++ differentiates in case of array index out of bound #include &lt;stdio.h&gt; int main() {     int a[10];     a[3]=4;     a[11]=3;//does not give segmentation fault     a[25]=4;//does not give segmentation fault     a[20000]=3; //gives segmentation fault     return 0; }  I understand that it's trying to access memory allocated to process or thread in case of a[11] or a[25] and it's going out of stack bounds in case of a[20000]. Why doesn't compiler or linker give an error, aren't they aware of the array size? If not then how does sizeof(a) work correctly? Rear fender angle For a 20" rear wheel with a this kind of fender, what would be the best angle to install it to minimize the spray on one's butt/legs? Does iOS support a built-in firewall like macOS does? I don't see anything about it in Settings. While trying some problems along with my friends we had difficulty in this question.   True or False: The value of the infinite product $$\prod\limits_{n=2}^{\infty} \biggl(1-\frac{1}{n^{2}}\biggr)$$ is $1$.   I couldn't do it and my friend justified it by saying that since the terms in the product have values less than $1$, so the value of the product can never be $1$. I don't know whether this justification is correct or not. But i referred to Tom Apostol's Mathematical Analysis book and found a theorem which states, that    The infinite product $\prod(1-a_{n})$ converges if the series $\sum a_{n}$ converges.   This assures that the above product converges. Could anyone help me in finding out where it converges to? And,   Does there exist a function $f$ in $\mathbb{N}$ ( like $n^{2}$, $n^{3}$) such that $\displaystyle \prod\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} \Bigl(1-\frac{1}{f(n)}\Bigr)$ has the value $1$? What exactly are genes, DNA and chromosomes. How do they relate to each other and what is their function? So I am new to biology and I have been reading, and searching the web, but I couldn't understand the whole framework of a cell. So as I understood:    A DNA, is a double chain of Nucleotides (A,T,G,C and a sugar) and a phosphate residue. Some parts of a DNA code a gene and some do not, exons and introns accordingly. As I understand it these the sequences of exons hold genes and the whole sequence is called genome. Now I read in the book Introduction to Computational Molecular Biology by J. C. Setubal and J. Meidanis. that I cite Each cell of an organism has a few very long DNA molecules. Each such molecule is called a chromosome. So each X shaped thing called a chromosome holds one DNA molecule?   Or is each "hand" of the chromosome one complete double helix of DNA so we have 23 pairs of such chromosomes? or is it that each we 23 pairs Xs?   Shouldn't we have just one uniquely identifiable DNA sequence? I am asking this, because I have also read that each chromosome encodes a different part of one's genome. Does this mean we have several DNA sequences?   This is really bothering me, since I can't figure out the correct structure of a cell.   EDIT: Now if each chromosome contains a pair of DNA helices. We have 46 chromosomes so overall within the cell there are 92 DNA sequences? All of which are the same? Or are they different? If they are different how do they code for different aspects of one's genome? Are the PUT, DELETE, HEAD, etc methods available in most web browsers? I've seen a couple questions around here like , which mentions:     Unfortunately that same browser won't allow me to test HTTP PUT, DELETE, and to a certain degree even HTTP POST.   I've also heard that browsers support only GET and POST, from some other sources like:        However, a few quick tests in Firefox show that sending PUT and DELETE requests works as expected -- the XMLHttpRequest completes successfully, and the request shows up in the server logs with the right method. Is there some aspect to this I'm missing, such as cross-browser compatibility or non-obvious limitations? How do I count attendance in Excel? Bernoulli maximum likelihood Suppose $X_1, X_2, \dots, X_n$ are iid Bernoulli(p) random variables. How do you find the restricted maximum likelihood for p where $0&lt;p&lt;0.5$?  My work so far:  Write out the likelihood: $L=p^{\sum x} (1-p)^{n-\sum x}$  Take the log: $\ln(L) = \sum x\ln(p)+(n-\sum x)\ln(1-p)$  Take the derivative and set equal to zero: $\frac{\sum x-np}{p(1-p)}=0$.  Now I'm stuck. I don't know how to incorporate the restrictions for $p$. How to add lists with unequal length? MySQL: SELECT from another server I'm afraid that I already know the answer to my question, but I'll ask it anyway:  When there are two MySQL DB servers, can I access data that is stored on the other server?   In other words: Can I somehow do this:  INSERT INTO table (x, y, z)    SELECT x, y, x+y       FROM [otherserver].[database].[table]   Is the answer really as short as "No"? Shouldn't the badge requirements scale? Many badges have fixed requirements, such as:   Answer score of 100 or more   However different websites means a different level of difficulty: the more active users a website has, the easier the badge is to get.  On a new and/or low-view website getting this badge may be impossible for several months; on a website like stack overflow now you can obtain it in a day, and it's relatively easy (compared to other SE sites).  Do you think it would be a good idea to implement a formula that allows the required score to scale? The more active users voting, the more votes are required to get it?  If yes how would you handle people who got it for a post that no longer meets the requirements? Given: $a = qb + r$. Then it holds that $\gcd(a,b)=\gcd(b,r)$. That doesn't sound logical to me. Why is this so?    Addendum by LePressentiment on 11/29/2013: (in the interest of  and averting a duplicate)  What's the intuition behind this result?
