I asked a  5 days ago. Now I know that there are no solutions for what I was searching for.   So there can't be a correct answer, so I never can mark any answer as the correct one. What should I do now? Let the question be unanswered or should I write something?   I won't delete the question, because it's a positive upvoted question, so other users are might also interest in a solution or want know that there is no solution.
The FAQ mentions bounty, but sometimes a question just doesn't really have a right answer:   No solution exists The question as written is unanswerable and unsalvageable There may be a technically correct answer, but the asker is unable to utilize it for some reason.   In these cases, a bounty, and more answers, won't really help. What is the appropriate etiquette in these cases? Should the question be closed? Left hanging?
Can the system leave a deletion reason when it deletes a question? Make mod_wsgi use python2.7.2 instead of python2.6? i am running Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS  and it came pre-packed with python2.6 but i need to replace it with python2.7.2.   (The reason is simple, 2.7 has a lot of features backported from 3 )  i had installed python2.7.2 using  ./configure make make altinstall   the altinstall option installed it, without touching the system default version, to /usr/local/lib/python2.7 and placed the interpreter in /usr/local/bin/python2.7  Then to help mod_wsgi find python2.7 i added the following to /etc/apache2/sites-available/wsgisite  WSGIPythonHome /usr/local   i start apache and run a test wsgi app BUT i am greeted by python 2.6.5  and not Python2.7  Later i replaced the default python simlink to point to python 2.7  ln -f /usr/local/bin/python2.7 /usr/bin/python   Now typing 'python' on the console opens python2.7 but somehow mod_wsgi still picks up python2.6  Next i tried,  PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH export PATH   then do a quick restart apache, but yet again its python2.6 !!

How would you evaluate the following limit:   $$\lim_{x\to \infty}\sqrt[6]{x^{6}+x^{5}}-\sqrt[6]{x^{6}-x^{5}}$$   I tried to use this formula: $a^{3}-b^{3}=(a-b)(a^{2}+ab+b^{2})$,  It didn't work.  Any hints? How to rank a million images with a crowdsourced sort I'd like to rank a collection of landscape images by making a game whereby site visitors can rate them, in order to find out which images people find the  most appealing.  What would be a good method of doing that?   Hot-or-Not style? I.e. show a single image, ask the user to rank it from 1-10. As I see it, this allows me to average the scores, and I would just need to ensure that I get an even distribution of votes across all the images. Fairly simple to implement. Pick A-or-B? I.e. show two images, ask user to pick the better one. This is appealing as there is no numerical ranking, it's just a comparison. But how would I implement it? My first thought was to do it as a quicksort, with the comparison operations being provided by humans, and once completed, simply repeat the sort ad-infinitum.   How would you do it?  If you need numbers, I'm talking about one million images, on a site with 20,000 daily visits. I'd imagine a small proportion might play the game, for the sake of argument, lets say I can generate 2,000 human sort operations a day! It's a non-profit website, and the terminally curious will find it through my profile :) Re-Structuring a JSON Selecting features by attributes using ogr2ogr? I just did my first install of any Linux OS, and I accidentally selected "Desktop GUI" in the install, but I want to build everything myself. Is there any way by which I can remove the GUI environment without re-installing OS? Find $f(x)$ for $f(f(x))=\sin x$ Find all (if that's possible) functions $f:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ such that $$f(f(x))=\sin x.$$  This is a problem a friend gave me. He said he saw it on a book a long time ago, but he couldn't remember what book. I literally have no idea how to solve this so I can't post my attempt here. How do I copy vertex groups from one object to another? So, I decided that a previous project contained exactly what I needed to expedite a new project, so I appended the appropriate objects form the previous project to the new one. This was great, because I didn't have to define new materials, &amp;c.   Regrettably, though, I found out that when it came to vertex groups, where it would have been as helpful to be able to copy vertex groups from one object to another as it was to copy materials, I couldn't figure out how to do so.   Am I looking for a feature which does not yet exist?  NOTE: I did not expect the vertex groups to have assignments in the target objects, but it would have been handy not to have had to retype 25 names. How to run grep with multiple AND patterns? I would like to get the multi pattern match with implicit AND between patterns, i.e. equivalent to running several greps in a sequence:  grep pattern1 | grep pattern2 | ...   So how to convert it to something like?  grep pattern1 &amp; pattern2 &amp; pattern3   I would like to use single grep because I am building arguments dynamically, so everything has to fit in one string. Using filter is system feature, not grep, so it is not an argument for it.    Don't confuse this question with:  grep "pattern1\|pattern2\|..."   This is an OR multi pattern match. How can i find the python triggered by the GUI? I want to fully automatize some of my blender processes, an i run into a lot of problems not finding the correct commands, not using the correct args...  Can i just "see" in a log somewhere what were the commands blender ran ?  To be very precise, i want to load a gltf file, and export it to stl.  No problem through the gui, but i'm stuck with that bit of code :   import bpy import sys import os  file = open(r"C:\Users\theo1\Documents\GitHub\Hackathon2020\map&amp;mapdata\mini.gltf")  bpy.ops.import_scene.gltf(file) bpy.ops.export_mesh.stl(filePath=r"C:\Users\theo1\Documents\GitHub\Hackathon2020\map&amp;mapdata\mini.stl")   Which gives me this :   Traceback (most recent call last):   File "&lt;string&gt;", line 1, in &lt;module&gt;   File "C:\Users\theo1\Desktop\impExp.py", line 7, in &lt;module&gt;     bpy.ops.import_scene.gltf(file)   File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 2.81\2.81\scripts\modules\bpy\ops.py", line 198, in __call__     C_dict, C_exec, C_undo = BPyOpsSubModOp._parse_args(args)   File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 2.81\2.81\scripts\modules\bpy\ops.py", line 151, in _parse_args     raise ValueError("1-3 args execution context is supported") ValueError: 1-3 args execution context is supported   thanks. Independent Edit/Object mode in splitscreen When I split screen in two and switch Edit/Object mode, they both change. How to change just one? The intention here is:  use one to modelling with numkey view with transparent wireframe and the other to see the progress in perspective, with solid mesh how to convert System::String to const char*? I am trying to teleport a player to certain coordinates once they enter an area.  The idea is that they walk into a really small building, but once they turn a corner, they get teleported into a larger building.

Procedural texture for longitudinal lines Interpretation of LASSO regression coefficients I'm currently working on building a predictive model for a binary outcome on a dataset with ~300 variables and 800 observations. I've read much on this site about the problems associated with stepwise regression and why not to use it.  I've been reading into LASSO regression and its ability for feature selection and have been successful in implementing it with the use of the "caret" package and "glmnet".   I am able to extract the coefficient of the model with the optimal lambda and alpha from "caret"; however, I'm unfamiliar with how to interpret the coefficients.    Are the LASSO coefficients interpreted in the same method as logistic regression? Would it be appropriate to use the features selected from LASSO in logistic regression?   EDIT  Interpretation of the coefficients, as in the exponentiated coefficients from the LASSO regression as the log odds for a 1 unit change in the coefficient while holding all other coefficients constant. How do you spell the following date:  December 6 (AmE)  6 December (BrE)  Do you spell this date as 'December six' or 'December the sixth' in American English?  And in British English, do you spell it as 'Six December' or 'The sixth of December'? monitor files (à la tail -f) in an entire directory (even new ones) Windows Metro apps have wrong icon in search UI How did Montague Apparate into the Hogwarts bathroom? In year 5, Fred and George jam Montague into the Vanishing Cabinet. He's found weeks later in a toilet.      ‘He never managed to get all the words out,’ said Fred, ‘due to   the fact that we forced him head-first into that Vanishing Cabinet   on the first floor.’      […]      ‘They’ve found Montague, sir, he’s turned up jammed inside a toilet   on the fourth floor.’   ‘How did he get in there?’ demanded Snape.   ‘I don’t know, sir, he’s a bit confused.’   In year 6 Malfoy expands on that.      ‘I had to mend that broken Vanishing Cabinet that no one’s used for years. The one Montague got lost in last year.’      […]      ‘The other’s in Borgin and Burkes,’ said Malfoy, ‘and they make a kind of passage between them. Montague told me that when he was stuck in the Hogwarts one, he was trapped in limbo but sometimes he could hear what was going on at school, and sometimes what was going on in the shop, as if the Cabinet was travelling between them, but he couldn't make anyone hear him ... in the end he managed to Apparate out, even though he’d never passed his test. He nearly died doing it.   What happened here? Did he Apparate out into Hogwarts, Apparate into Borgin and Burkes and somehow wander back to Hogwarts and get stuck into a toilet?
