At the moment, if I want to look at the activity of a thread I've already read (new Answers, new Comments, new Answer/Question edits), I have to go through a tedious process. Luckily, we got a lastactivity button, but that only shows the latest activity:    By sequential activity, I mean a list of links sorted by latest activity first.  The reason I want this feature is because I often want to know what activity I missed. In my case, this is on threads I've Starred, in which I don't wanna miss a thing. It's easy to miss stuff when relying on lastactivity, especially on busy and/or large threads.    UPDATE: Good to know , but  it would nice if it was easily accessible. An example would be the following, where history links to that activity:  active: 8 months ago (history)
There is an experimental timeline view for questions now available on meta ONLY! (Now working on SO, SF, and SU as well)  This is partially motivated by comments about how difficult it is to follow very active questions which have a lot of activity, and also the feedback on the API which was heavily dominated by "we need to know what happened in this time range" type responses.  It can only be accessed through URL hackery at the moment. To get to it, enter question URLs like so:  https://meta.stackexchange.com/posts/{id}/timeline  This is a chronological timeline of everything that happened on a question, including   initial question ask answers  revisions comments closure, deletion, reopen, undelete, etc votes   all based on when they happened in chronological order.  We are thinking about making this a fourth tab on the question, like so:  Timeline | Oldest | Newest | Votes  Please try it out and provide feedback. It is still a little rough, so we are not looking for highly detailed bug reports, just more general feedback.  Timeline view for this question:
How to prove $|a^k|=n/\gcd(n,k)$ whenever $|a|=n$? Where can I find a standalone installer for Windows 7 Service Pack 1? "...would have trouble imagining...": Is this present participle or gerund? Exporting symbols rather than points in .dxf I have a map I've made in QGIS which is points from a .csv file. These have then be turned into different symbols based on what they represent and then the sizes of said symbols based on values in the .csv.  I need to export this as a .dxf to use in AutoCAD so it basically looks the same as it does in QGIS. However, when I do so it just exports as single dots (points). Is there a way I can export them as the symbols as I can see in QGIS? Where were the capital ships and bombers? Independence of disjoint events Interpreting the residuals vs. fitted values plot for verifying the assumptions of a linear model Flag apron shows superfluous closing anchor tag I awoke this morning to a spam flag on a site I moderate, and noticed this when I went to read the post.    Notice answered&lt;/a&gt;, which I imagine isn't meant to have the &lt;/a&gt; there.  I also confirmed that this displays asked&lt;/a&gt; for other types of flags (namely, closed without comment).   I looked around for a duplicate of this but can't seem to find it, so maybe it's a recent change? This is a Putnam Problem that I have been trying to solve (on and off) for two years, but I have failed. I am in Calculus BC. This problem comes from the book "Calculus Eighth Edition by Larson, Hostetler, and Edwards". This problem is at the end of the first section of the chapter 8 exercises. Here's the problem:  Evaluate $$\int_2^4 \frac{\sqrt{\ln(9-x)}\,dx}{\sqrt{\ln(9-x)} + \sqrt{\ln(x+3)}}.$$  Please. Any help is very much appreciated. So are solutions. Thank you!  Edit: I like the solution given, but I was interested to see if there is any other way of doing the problem? I'm excited to see the results. When should I use  or >()? I know that &lt;, &lt;(), &lt;&lt; all are used to give input and  &gt;, &gt;() which are used to redirect output.  But I don't know what is clear difference between them and when to use them.  Please explain in detail and along with references if possible. Thanks Linux file access monitoring Is there any way in unix to find out who accessed certain file in last 1 week? It may be user or some script ftp it to some other place. Can I get a list of user name who accessed certain file? How can I find out who is accessing particular file?? Evaluation of $\sin \frac{\pi}{7}\cdot \sin \frac{2\pi}{7}\cdot \sin \frac{3\pi}{7}$ Evaluation of $$\sin \frac{\pi}{7}\cdot \sin \frac{2\pi}{7}\cdot \sin \frac{3\pi}{7} = $$   $\bf{My\; Try::}$ I have solved Using Direct formula::  $$\sin \frac{\pi}{n}\cdot \sin \frac{2\pi}{n}\cdot......\sin \frac{(n-1)\pi}{n} = \frac{n}{2^{n-1}}$$  Now Put $n=7\;,$ We get   $$\sin \frac{\pi}{7}\cdot \sin \frac{2\pi}{7}\cdot \sin \frac{3\pi}{7}\cdot \sin \frac{4\pi}{7}\cdot \sin \frac{5\pi}{7}\cdot \sin \frac{6\pi}{7}=\frac{7}{2^{7-1}}$$  So $$\sin \frac{\pi}{7}\cdot \sin \frac{2\pi}{7}\cdot \sin \frac{3\pi}{7} =\frac{\sqrt{7}}{8}$$  Now my question is how can we solve it without using Direct Formula, Help me  Thanks Eclipse: Can you format code on save? In Eclipse, under Windows -> Preference -> Java -> Code Style, you can define code templates for comments and code, and you can setup a code formatter.   I'm wondering if it is possible in Eclipse to have these setting take affect every time I save a source file.  Basically, instead of me highlighting everything and pressing Ctrl+Shift+F, I want Eclipse to be responsible for making sure my code is formatted properly.  Is this possible and how do you set it up?  Note On Using the Auto-Format:  It's probably best to choose "Format Edited Lines" as merging changes becomes very difficult when you reformat a whole file that is in source control already that was not formatted properly. Already did this to a co-worker. LaTeX on Stack Overflow? in questions, answers, and comments. Can we get something like this going on Stack Overflow?  I think it’d be appropriate as I at least pretty often want to write something like n^2 and would benefit greatly from prettier markup. Does anyone know how to make the character picker appear more quickly?   I use it enough now in my German language studies that it has become second nature for the critical marks and much faster than using the alt+keypress shortcuts.   Only problem is that it's so second nature that sometimes it doesn't pop up quickly enough so I end up typing the character and the number shortcut sometimes (IE u2 instead of ü). Anyone know how to make it appear with less delay? Ideally, I'd love if I could just hold the character and press the number but it appears that OSX insists on waiting for the menu to pop up. I am looking for various ways of explaining to my students (in an elementary statistics course) what is a two tailed test, and how its P value is calculated.  How do you explain to your students the two- vs one- tailed test? I want something similar to "preview" in macs.  For example: I want an image editor that ONLY does simple adjustments like increase/decrease contrast, saturation, exposure, color tinting.... rotate, flip vertically, flip horizontally, make black and white, change size or format, crop.  THATS IT.  I know gimp can do all those things but its a bit overkill.  I just want to right click an image, open it with this magical program i just described, do a few quick adjustments, and then save and exit.  Nothing really fancy.  Anyone know of anything like this?  Btw I am using ubuntu 12.04 :) It rocks and I am glad I switched from mac, i just need to replace this one piece of software. This occurs in the  released recently to the public. When someone posts a code block in their question or answer, the code block is cut off on the right hand side, and I can't scroll to the right to view the rest of it. How can I view these code blocks? Do rogues get sneak attack damage added to attacks made outside their turn? PHB says 'once per turn,' so, it would seem that a Rogue with Sentinel, for example, could "consistently" deal Sneak attack twice per round (whether the enemy triggers an OA or the melee weapon attack provided by the Feat).  So, can rogues deal sneak attack damage with any weapon attack outside their turn? (obv. one that meets the standard requirements--finesse, adv or adj ally) Linear congruence fill in the missing step? Currently working on this problem and I'm having trouble seeing how it goes from one line to the next.    $45x \equiv 63\mod 11$ goes to $x \equiv 8\mod 11$     Any help would be awesome thanks.  Please try to explain how it works to help me see thanks.
