All throughout the Star Wars movies, we see the droids emit several beeps and whirs, and the humans reply to the droid as if it were a normal conversation. How can every character in Star Wars fluently understand droidspeak? We know that Anakin Skywalker could speak several languages by the age of 9, including droidspeak. Is this language just something standardly taught to young children across the galaxy? Droidspeak is a complicated language. Are children in Star Wars born knowing it? Do they learn it like their own language, from their parents and surroundings? (This question has been associated with &quot;How do people understand astromech droids?&quot;. I am asking about all types of droids and their language droidspeak (or Binary), not specifically astromech droids, although the questions are fundamentally similar) **edit: I have found evidence for this question in the show Star Wars Rebels (which is canon). In one scene, Zeb says to Ezra &quot;Wait, you actually understand that glorified beeping garbage can?&quot; (referring to a droid) and Ezra responds: &quot;Yeah, sort of. I'm learning.&quot; which implies that droidspeak can be learned, but is not widely known. **
In all the Star Wars movies, R2D2 just boops and beeps his way around. And everyone understands him perfectly, though he is obviously not speaking Basic.  How do people understand him - is there like an astromech language? If so, then would one have to learn it, or is it comprised of feelings and emotions (expressed in beeps), essentially making a tonal language?  If I may be permitted to use an example from the prequels without too many lynch mobs forming, Anakin Skywalker converses frequently with Artoo while in the Naboo fighter, but he couldn't have had much schooling at the age of eleven, especially because he was a slave.  So how would people, Anakin especially, be able to understand astromechs?
My son is 5 years old and sexually active I am a 20 year old female student and I have a 5 year old son who is really sexually active. For instance, he kisses girls by force, he forces them to lick his penis, he "fingers" them, he speaks about sex openly with everyone except me, his father and my family.  There is a whole lot more that he does and the most frustrating part is that when teachers ask him where he saw those things, he says he learned it from me.  We do not even live together.  Currently I am in Cape Town doing my degree and he is in KZN with my mother.  Since he was 8 months old, he went to live with his father because I had to finish high school.  We never lived together. We have tried talking to him and it hasn't helped.  We've punished him but still he keeps on getting worse. What should I do?  I am really angry, embarrassed and confused. If I am not mistaken, this is his third year acting like this. Opening website external links in new window -- published usability tests Continuously differentiable map from $\mathbb{R}^{m+n}$ to $\mathbb{R}^n$ Suppose $m,n&gt;0$, $U$ an open subset of $\mathbb{R}^{m+n}$ and let $f: U \to \mathbb{R}^n$ be continuously differentiable.  Is it possible for $f$ to be injective?    My thinking is that continuous differentiability+injectivity suggests that this is sort of getting at a converse to the Inverse Function Theorem.  We know the Jacobian is not invertible at any point in $U$, and the question is asking if this implies that $f$ cannot be invertible in any neighborhood contained in $U$. getting error when I compile the Java code using package in commandline? complex number question involving modulus Let $z, w$ be distinct complex numbers.

I am using Leopard, therefore these don't work:    (requires Lion)  (requires Snow Leopard)   Also,  slows down my computer. BSOD: Driver State Power Failure For the past two weeks, I've been getting this BSOD error on my Lenovo laptop. I have even reset my laptop ("rest this PC"), but it's still happening.  My laptop details:     I have the latest Nvidia driver for my Nvidia Geforce MX150: 431.60 released on 23 Jul 2019.  I have the latest BIOS for my laptop: 8TCN53WW15  released on 15 Jul 2019.     I have run WhoCrashed, it says it says the problem was caused by some driver which could not be identified. If I get to know the problematic driver I will update/uninstall it.  How can I analyze my dump files, so that I can find the problematic driver?  Edit 1: If you get "Oops there was a problem with the network" on google drive page while accessing dump files, just click on download. They will be downloaded. I don't know what's causing this. I'll be generous and say it might be reasonable to assume that nature would tend to minimize, or maybe even maximize, the integral over time of $T-V$.  Okay, fine.  You write down the action functional, require that it be a minimum (or maximum), and arrive at the Euler-Lagrange equations.  Great.  But now you want these Euler-Lagrange equations to not just be derivable from the Principle of Least Action, but you want it to be equivalent to the Principle of Least Action.  After thinking about it for awhile, you realize that this implies that the Principle of Least Action isn't really the Principle of Least Action at all:  it's the "Principle of Stationary Action".  Maybe this is just me, but as generous as I may be, I will not grant you that it is "natural" to assume that nature tends to choose the path that is stationary point of the action functional.  Not to mention, it isn't even obvious that there is such a path, or if there is one, that it is unique.  But the problems don't stop there.  Even if you grant the "Principle of Stationary Action" as fundamentally and universally true, you realize that not all the equations of motions that you would like to have are derivable from this if you restrict yourself to a Lagrangian of the form $T-V$.  As far as I can tell, from here it's a matter of playing around until you get a Lagrangian that produces the equations of motion you want.  From my (perhaps naive point of view), there is nothing at all particularly natural (although I will admit, it is quite useful) about the formulation of classical mechanics this way.  Of course, this wouldn't be such a big deal if these classical ideas stayed with the classical physics, but these ideas are absolutely fundamental to how we think about things as modern as quantum field theory.  Could someone please convince me that there is something natural about the choice of the Lagrangian formulation of classical mechanics (I don't mean in comparison with the Hamiltonian formulation; I mean period), and in fact, that it is so natural that we would not even dare abandon these ideas? How do I remap the Caps Lock and Ctrl keys? I'd like to remap my keys such that Ctrl behaves as the Caps Lock key and vice-versa. Also, if possible I'd like the settings to be available only within the currently logged-in user. How can I achieve this?  I'm a vim user, unlike the other people who use this machine, so I'd like those settings only for my account. How do different difficulties work on story missions? When selecting a story mission, I can choose between "Easy" and "Hard".  Next to the difficulty, the game displays some kind of level.  However, when you start the mission, you still end up in the common map area with other players.  What exactly changes when you select a higher difficulty?  Is it possible to see other players playing on "Easy" when you select "Hard" before entering the mission zone where respawning is restricted? Characterizing all ring homomorphisms $C[0,1]\to\mathbb{R}$. This is something I've been trying to work out this evening.      Let $R$ be the ring of continuous real-valued functions on $[0,1]$ with pointwise addition and multiplication. For $t\in [0,1]$, the map $\phi_t\colon f\to f(t)$ is a ring homomorphism of $R$ to $\mathbb{R}$. I'm trying to show that every ring homomorphism of $R\to\mathbb{R}$ has this form.   Suppose otherwise, that there is some $\phi\neq\phi_t$, and thus there is some $f_t\in R$ such that $\phi(f_t)\neq \phi_t(f_t)=f_t(t)$. Define $g_t=f_t-\phi(f_t)1\in R$. Here $\phi(f_t)1$ is the constant function sending $[0,1]$ to $\phi(f_t)$. Then $g_t(t)\neq 0$. My first small question is why does $\phi(g_t)=0$? It seems only that $\phi(g_t)=\phi(f_t)-\phi(\phi(f_t)1)$.  I would like to conclude that there are only finitely many $t_i$ such that $g(x)=\sum g_{t_i}^2(x)\neq 0$ for all $x$. Then $g^{-1}=1/g(x)\in R$, but $\phi(g)=0$, contradicting the fact that homomorphisms map units to units. How can we be sure there are only finitely many $g_{t_i}$ such that the sum of their squares is never $0$? Thanks. I've logged in and out, restarted my phone, updated, but the Pokemon footsteps indicating whats nearby wont show up.   The Pokemon still appear in the menu, but I cannot click to select them, nor does it show their distance from me with the footsteps.   What is going on? The new 17.10 only has 64 bit ISOs. However 32 bit is still supported, there just are no live ISOs for it.  I have a 32 bit machine with WIFI, and I need to install from a USB disk. I tried the "mini.iso" but it doesn't have WIFI support.  What options do I have?  (PS I don't want another distro, and I can't use ethernet for installation, must be WIFI). I'm trying to create a pmatrix whose components are rather complicated fractions (Christoffel symbols), and the line spacing is too small making the whole thing a bit cramped and hard to read.  Is there any easy way to increase the spacing (about 1.5 the default would be perfect)?
