I'm following instructions on Mikogo website , but it doesn't work. ./mikogo doing nothing. Please, help.
I have downloaded tar.gz files. But I don't know how to install it. How do I install this kind of file?
Text not very readable on different image backgrounds I've come here seeking for a bit of design help or advice on how I could possibly improve the following:  Like the title says, I'm having a website banner with multiple text displayed on different images as backgrounds. Now, since most of the images are dark, I've set the font color as white. But even then, some of the text is not very readable on a couple of images like:    Since I'm working with CSS, I've tried different options such as:  Adding Text Shadows:    CSS:  text-shadow: 3px 3px 0px #000;  Also tried, creating a semi-transparent box around the text:      I feel the box one looks out of place.  I've created a  for anyone who knows CSS. If not, please feel free to advice me based on your imagination alone.  PS: You could also advice on using a different font if that would help it stand out better. Draft mode for pgfplots I'm working on a fairly big document that has a lot of graphs of functions- so far it has around 200, by the end it will have around 1500. I use pgfplots for each graphic, and the functions are pretty basic: exponential, rational, polynomial, and trigonometric.  Once I am happy with each graph, I don't necessarily need to see it every time I compile, and would like to minimize compilation time for future drafts. Naturally, the document is already chopped up into chapter files, but each chapter contains around 100 figures.  Having studied the pgfplots documentation, I haven't found a draft mode, but I'm interested in knowing if one could be created.    I'm envisaging something similar to the draft mode of the graphicx package, in which graphics are not included, and blank boxes are put in their place.  Some things I've considered:   the  documentclass; but with about 1500 figures, wouldn't this mean over-modulization?  tikzexternalize, but this still requires an initial 'monster' compilation to get the images externalized before the draft option could be invoked   Here's a MWE to play with  \documentclass{article} \usepackage{pgfplots}  \begin{document}  \begin{tikzpicture}     \begin{axis}         \addplot {x^2};     \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture}  \end{document} how I can draw an skew cylinder (rotate around x axis) and fill it (in 3D tikz)? When should I use # and = in ASP.NET controls? I have been using ASP.NET for years, but I can never remember when using the # and = are appropriate.  For example:  &lt;%= Grid.ClientID %&gt;   or  &lt;%# Eval("FullName")%&gt;   Can someone explain when each should be used so I can keep it straight in my mind? Is # only used in controls that support databinding? What is the point of the `cd` external command? so there are some idiosyncrasies with the method they use to invert that part of the image which I can't figure out. It could be that they just invert the luminosity but I don't know how i would do that in a dynamic way. I have a question related to multiple regression and interaction, inspired by this CV thread:    When checking for a moderation effect I do center my independent variables and multiply the centered variables in order to calculate my interaction term. Then I run my regression analysis and check for main and interaction effects, which may show the moderation.  If I redo the analysis without centering, apparently the coefficient of determination ($R^2$) does not change but the regression coefficients ($\beta$s) do. That seems clear and logical.  What I do not understand: The p-values of the main effects change substantially with centering, although the interaction does not (which is right). So my interpretation of main effects could change dramatically - just determined by centering or not. (It's is still the same data, in both analyses!)  Can somebody clarify? - Because that would mean that the option to center my variables would be mandatory and everybody should do it in order to get the same results with the same data.    Thanks a lot for distributing to that problem and your comprehensive explanations. Be assured that your help is very much appreciated!  For me, the biggest advantage of centering is to avoid multicollinearity. It is still quite confusing to establish a rule, whether to center or not. My impression is, that most of the resources suggest to center, although there are some "risks" when doing it. Again I want to put out the fact, that 2 researchers dealing with the same material and data might conclude different results, because one does centering and the other does not. I just read some part of a book by Bortz (he was a Professor and kind of a Statistics Star in Germany and Europe), and he does not even mention that technique; just points out to be careful in interpreting main effects of variables when they are involved in interactions.  After all, when you conduct a regression with one IV, one moderator (or second IV) and a DV, would you recommend to center or not? Can't unhide grayed out objects After some searching on stack / google I decided to ask this here, this is the second time I'm facing this issue this time with blender 2.8, previously with 2.7 and without a clue to how I got here.  Some of my objects appear hidden(10/12), and I can't seem to find a way to unhide them.  Solutions to the most common rookie mistakes seems to be   In local-view solved by pressing numpad / hidden by pressing H or Shift + H, unhiding with Alt + H   I'm not in local view, I can toggle visibility for 2/12 objects with Shift + H &amp; Alt + H, but the rest stays gray in the collection.  Last time I solved this by exporting the whole model as STL and importing it back again, I then had to re-group all the pieces but there must be a more simple solution.  Here's the .blend if someone wants to have a go at it: What does the second column in the output of 'ls -n' mean? When to use a linked list over an array/array list? I use a lot of lists and arrays but I have yet to come across a scenario in which the array list couldn't be used just as easily as, if not easier than, the linked list.  I was hoping someone could give me some examples of when the linked list is notably better. Does the scientific community consider the Loschmidt paradox resolved? If so what is the resolution? Context: I prepare my scientific documents using LaTeX and compile to a PDF. I often need to seek comments on drafts from collaborators who do not use LaTeX. Most of these collaborators use Windows OS. Assume also that the collaborator does not need to edit the document.  They only need to be able to add comments to the document. Most would be familiar with the commenting system in MS Word, for example. I'd like to be able to give the collaborator some clear instructions about what software and system they should use to comment on the draft.  This should involve free software and an easy to use interface.  Question: What is a good strategy for getting comments on draft documents when the collaborator does not know LaTeX?  Initial thoughts: I know Adobe professional allows you to add comments to a PDF.  However, some collaborators don't have this software and it costs money.  I could send the raw LaTeX to the collaborator. However, given all the markup, the collaborator may find LaTeX source a bit mysterious.  UPDATE: After posting I noticed  to a similar question. Along with a number of other good tips (such as printing and getting paper comments), he mentions jarnal, xournal, and gournal as free cross-platform PDF annotators. I'd be curious to know whether experts have found them adequate for the above mentioned purpose and whether any of them are to be preferred. Others mention FoXIt. And yet others discuss the option of exporting to MS Word or Open Office and using the reviewing system within these programs. I ran across this problem in my Analysis class and can't seem to come up with a good solution. Here's the question: Show that if $\lim_{x\to a}f'(x) = A$ then $f'(a)$ exists and equals $A$. $f$ is continuous on $[a,b]$ and differentiable on $(a,b)$.  I tried applying the Mean Value theorem like this: There exists a $c \in (a, x)$ st $f(x)-f(a)=f'(c)(x-a) \implies \frac{f(x)-f(a)}{x-a}=f'(c) \implies f'(a)=\lim_{x\to a}\frac{f(x)-f(a)}{x-a}=\lim_{c\to a}f'(c)=A$  However, I think this is wrong. I am pretty sure the Mean Value theorem is needed, but my application of it seems to be incorrect. Would somebody be able to point me in the right direction? Help finding this set Lets define the following:  Let A be a set. A is innumerable if and only if there exists a bijective function from A to $\mathbb{N}$  Proof that there exists an innumerable set $B \subseteq \mathcal P \left({\mathbb{N}}\right)$ such that it has the following properties:  1) $X\cap Y =\emptyset$ for all $X,Y \in B$ such that $X \neq Y$  2) $\mathbb{N}= \bigcup B$  3) All elements of B are innumerable.  Any help is appreciated. I don´t know how to find this set ... Why does (insert favorite search engine here) get better search results than SO, SF, or SU's own search function? I've lost count of the number of times I've either asked a question or been answering a question only to have it closed as an exact duplicate. But searching for the question turns up  a list of seemly unrelated results using the sites builtin search. Then if I switch to a general web search engine and limit its scope to just SO, SF or SU I find the question within the first two or three results.  Why is this?  I'm pretty sure this isn't an exact duplicate of another question though I did find some that were at least somewhat related (using google).  Update:  I also have gotten (somewhat) better results by simply typing a question and browsing the generated list of related questions. Still a search feature that doesn't return good results isn't going to be used by most people.  Common sense would suggest (though common sense isn't always the best indicator) that a targeted solution to a specific problem domain should be superior to a generalized solution. In most cases this appears to hold true. LED as power generator OrderBy and OrderByDescending are stable? Find $n$ such that $x^2 + x + 1$ is a factor of $(x+1)^n - x^n - 1$. I have to find the form of n i.e. whether n is even or odd and whether it is multiple of 2 or 3 such that:  $x^2 + x + 1$ is a factor of $(x+1)^n - x^n - 1$  What I tried:  $$x^2 + x + 1 = (x + 1)^2 - x $$  also,  $$(x+1)^n-x^n-1= \binom{n}{o}x^n + \binom{n}{1}x^{n-1} + ... + \binom{n}{n-1}x + \binom{n}{n}.1 - x^n - 1$$  $$=\binom{n}{1}x^{n-1} + ... + \binom{n}{n-1}x$$  after getting this far I tried with taking x and n common but still couldn't able to find the right direction.  I need extra hints to solve this. Can WMS be used to get a local copy of raster data? Removing nodes from an XmlDocument The following code should find the appropriate project tag and remove it from the XmlDocument, however when I test it, it says:  The node to be removed is not a child of this node.  Does anyone know the proper way to do this?  public void DeleteProject (string projectName) {     string ccConfigPath = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ConfigPath"];      XmlDocument configDoc = new XmlDocument();      configDoc.Load(ccConfigPath);      XmlNodeList projectNodes = configDoc.GetElementsByTagName("project");      for (int i = 0; i &lt; projectNodes.Count; i++)     {         if (projectNodes[i].Attributes["name"] != null)         {             if (projectName == projectNodes[i].Attributes["name"].InnerText)             {                                                                 configDoc.RemoveChild(projectNodes[i]);                 configDoc.Save(ccConfigPath);             }         }     } }   UPDATE  Fixed. I did two things:  XmlNode project = configDoc.SelectSingleNode("//project[@name='" + projectName + "']");   Replaced the For loop with an XPath query, which wasn't for fixing it, just because it was a better approach.  The actual fix was:  project.ParentNode.RemoveChild(project);   Thanks Pat and Chuck for this suggestion.
