I have some .apk files and want to run on lubuntu 13.10. Please tell a detailed solution
In Windows, you can run android application using BlueStack.   I was wondering, is there any way these apps can be run on Ubuntu 12.04?
How to resolve "Failed to download repository information"? Whenever I try to install anything with the Ubuntu Software Center, the following error appears.     Failed to download repository information      Check your Internet connection.

Is there a standard pronunciation for gender-neutral -@ or -x More and more I see, especially in activist communities, Spanish-derived words ending in x or @ in order to neuter the gendering inherent in the original language. For example: latinx (or latin@) as opposed to latina and latino. How, though, are these endings pronounced? Please provide evidence of how this orthography is most commonly pronounced. Note 1: I recognize this is in an English Language site, rather than a Spanish language site, but this phenomenon is very much happening in English, albeit with Spanish loan words. Therefore the question is relevant to non-Spanish-speaking English speakers. Note 2: A question like this can lead to politically charged or, at least, sarcastic comments. Please refrain from bringing in your biases for or against. Note 3: This question is not seeking opinions as to how some people pronounce the suffixes. Answers should address evidence of a developing orthodoxy in pronunciation. I'm used to creating Java Edition Minecraft maps, where NBT can be used to set many different block, item, and entity properties, like an item's CanPlaceOn/CanDestroy list, a chest's items, and more! To open my maps up to more players, I've started creating maps on Minecraft Bedrock Edition as well. But NBT is inaccessible from commands in BE, which I knew before, but didn't know how much of a problem I would have creating these complicated command chains. One of the things that I've always been doing is giving players items with custom item names, lores, enchantments, and other properties. But there is a problem. All this would have been done in NBT in Java Edition. In Bedrock, NBT is inaccessible from commands, meaning the commands I used in JE don't work. Are my dreams crushed? Software Tester Skill Matrix with Levels I would like to know if there's a standard Skill set for Skill Matrix for a Software Tester of different levels, like for example, what are the skills needed for an Entry level tester as well as what technologies and responsibilities he needs. And for the Mid Level tester and Senior Level as well.  Note that I am working in a company who designs and develops websites. Sum of two closed sets in $\mathbb R$ is closed? Is there a counterexample for the claim in the question subject, that a sum of two closed sets in $\mathbb R$ is closed? If not, how can we prove it?  (By sum of sets $X+Y$ I mean the set of all sums $x+y$ where $x$ is in $X$ and $y$ is in $Y$)  Thanks! A few years ago I saw a scifi movie about a group of travelers stranded at what I believe might have been a bus station (I don't remember that detail with any certainty).  There were 2 children (a boy and a girl) who were running around and everyone thought they belonged to someone else there.  As it turned out, the children were aliens that reverted to their true form and began hunting down the travelers.  I've been searching all over the internet but can't come up with the name of the movie.  Does anyone know the name of it? I woke up this morning to find that I suffered a massive drop in reputation points across the network because lots of users had been removed.  What happened to those users? Was there a database cleanup? Maven artifact and groupId naming I have a 4GB DDR3 800Mhz recently I installed another 4GB. It turns out it's  DDR3 667MHz. Does it really matter I should own both rams 800MHz?    Slot1 shows recent RAM installation. ALSO I don't know if this is 1600MHz (it shows 800x2 and 667x2 for other) or just 800MHz ram. MacOS dmg file question Not entirely sure if this is where to ask this, but I can't find another place to...  I've recently switched from Windows to Mac and I am trying to understand more in depth what I'm working with.  My question is: are .dmg files the equivalent of .zip files in Windows? I came to this theory when downloading a .dmg and when I opened it, it contained a .app and and text file read me. To me, this seems like a compressed file.   Is this correct? Let $A$, $B$ be two reduced $k$-algebras. Then if an element of the form $$\sum a_{i}\otimes b_{j}$$ is nilpotent, we can compose it with any $k$-homomorphism $f$ from $A$ to $k$ to get a homomorphism from $A\otimes B$ to $B$. This map's image is $$\sum f(a_{i})\otimes b_{j}$$must be nilpotent as well. So if we assume $b_{j}$ is linearly independent in the first place, we may reason that $f(a_{i})=0$. This showed that $a_{i}$ are in the Jacobson radical of $A$. However, we only know $\mathrm{Nil}(A)=0$, and it is not clear to me how to pass from the Jacobson radical to the nilradical without using some commutative algebra machinery.   Here is what I think that might work. If $A$ is of finite type, then by Nullstellensatz we can assert the above is true. But if $A$ is not of finite type, then I can write $A=k[x_{1},...,x_{n}][X]$, where $n$ is the transcendence degree of $k(A)$ and $k[X]$ is finite over $k$. Then I should be able to pass from $k[X]$ to $A$ by inductive argument on the transcendental degree of $k(A)$, since prime ideals are maximal in a UFD (I am working with $k[x]$ by introducing $[x]$).   The proof I have for the case of finite type is not satisfying. Given $I\subset k[X]$, using Nullstellensatz one can show that $$I_{X}V_{X}[I]=\sqrt{I}$$ where $V_{X}[I]$ is the set of all points in $X$ on which $I$ vanishes, and $I_{X}(V_{X}[I])$ be the ideal in $k[X]$ which vanishes on $V_{X}[I]$. Granting this, let $I=(a_{i})$, then we want to show $I=0$, which is $V_{X}[I]=X$. This follows since if $U\subset W$, then $V_{X}[U]\supset V_{X}[W]$. Since $V_{X}[I]\supset V_{X}[m_{x}]$ for all maximal ideal corresponding to points, it must be $X$. This proof is unnecessarily winding by using the ideal-variety correspondence. Ideally I should be able to construct a pure algebraic proof.   The thing not clear to me is whether the above strategy really works. Namely I am not sure if I can really induct on the transcendental degree of $k(A)$. To make matters simple assume we showed the statement holds for $A$ with transdental degree $&lt;n$. For $A$ with transdental degree $n$ we can thus write it as $k[A'][x]$. Then any maximal ideal $m'$ of $k[A'][x]$ must correspond to a maximal ideal $m=m'\cap k[A']$ in $k[A']$. But it seems not possible to show that any prime ideal is maximal. Indeed considering the simple example of $k[x,y]$, where $(x)$ is a prime ideal but not maximal since $k[x,y]/(x)=k[y]$ is not a field. The problem is in the inducting process the base ring is not neccessarily a field, and so this strategy cannot work.   I am thinking maybe I can show $m'=m[f(x)]$ with $f(x)$ some irreducible polynomial in $k[A'][x]$. Because we know $k[A'][x]$ is noetherian by Hilbert's basis theorem, so in particular $m'$ must have a finite generating set. And we can reduce the number of irreducible polynomial to 1 since $m'$ is a maximal ideal. But I still do not know how to use this to finish the proof. Characterizing non-constant entire functions with modulus $1$ on the unit circle Is there a characterization of the nonconstant entire functions $f$ that satisfy $|f(z)|=1$ for all $|z|=1$?   Clearly, $f(z)=z^n$ works for all $n$. Also, it's not difficult to show that if $f$ is such an entire function, then $f$ must vanish somewhere inside the unit disk. What else can be said about those functions?  Thank you. How to use grep and cut together? Lets say I'm doing a database for fruits. Using a text file for it, inside contains, in this format,  (Fruit:Quantity:Cost) Apple:10:1 Orange:20:2 Pears:10:3 Banana:20:4  10 Apples at $1 each. 20 Oranges at $2 each. 10 Pears at $3 each. 20 Bananas at $4 each.   My simple script goes like this:  echo "Enter fruit to find" read fruit  echo "Enter quantity to find" read count  echo "Enter cost to find" read cost  grep $fruit FruitDB.txt     It will display the fruits in the database.  But how do i use grep and cut together to find just by the quantity or the cost. In the quantity count area, let's say i enter 20, it will display the Oranges and Banana. Or when i enter count and cost, it will display just those that meet the conditions. Questions about insects eating flour and living in the cracks of a wooden cutting boards I have a large wooden cutting board which is used in my kitchen mainly for preparing egg pasta. The wood type is Populus (poplar or aspen or cottonwood).  The main ingredients used with the cutting board are: flour (mainly soft wheat flour), hens' eggs, white sugar, butter, and baking powder.  After the food preparation, the cutting board is cleaned by scraping away the ingredients remains.  The board has some cracks and some small unknown insects are living inside the cracks.   The board has also a lot of holes due to woodboring beetles but I think the woodworms operated long time ago and they no longer live in the cutting board.  The unknown insect has an approximate length of 1 mm (along the direction of their movements) and a width of 0.3 mm. The unknown insects do not have wings, they just walk. I am not able to see how many pairs of legs they have.  The color of the insect is pale brown.  The cutting board was free from these unknown insects some months ago but then they appeared.  My questions:   What insects are they? Are these insects poisonous to humans? How can I get rid of them?   Update  The unknown insects could be Acarus siro, I will try to get a picture of the insects.  Update 2  Here is a picture. The bottom part of the image is a one Euro coin, the top part of the image is a caliper (each bright area is one mm tick).   Some more pictures: Double dual mappings $\newcommand{\Hom}{\operatorname{Hom}}$Let $U,V$ be vector spaces. Denote the dual space of $U$ with $U^\intercal$ and the dual mapping of a linear map $\Phi$ be $\Phi^\intercal$. Define the double dual embedding on $U$ to be $\iota_U:U \to U^{\intercal\intercal}$. ($u \in U, f \in U^\intercal$) $$ \iota_U(u)(f) = f(u) $$     If $\Phi \in \Hom(V,U)$, then $\Phi^{\intercal\intercal} \circ \iota_V = \iota_U \circ \Phi:V \to U^{\intercal\intercal}$   Proof: Let $v \in V, f \in U^\intercal$. Then $$ \iota_U \circ \Phi(v)(f) = f(\Phi(v)) $$ but how do I show that $$ \Phi^{\intercal\intercal} \circ \iota_V(v)(f) = f(\Phi(v)) $$ ? How does Router know where to forward packet If several computers with local addresses (192.168.0.#) are connected to a router and each computer opens a web browser and requests a page over HTTP, when these TCP:80 packets are sent out, the router switches the local address with the static IP of the router (i.e. Provider given IP) so the server can reply to the appropriate address.   But how does the router know to which computer to forward the HTTP reply, since the TCP header does not contain the local IP address (does it?), and all computers are using port 80?  Does this have anything to do with the MAC addresses?   How exactly does this work? We have various ways of invoking apex. Triggers, Inbound Webservices, @InvocableMethod,@RemoteAction and what not. Often we call some or other utility methods from these execution contexts. I have some generic utility method,that should behave differently from the context it is called?  I know about Trigger.isExecuting but it only tells if its running in trigger context or not.  I have a utility method that creates lead from Webservices, VF button click and via Lightning . Whenever we create a lead I want some special operations to be done via the source it was originated.(Its not just updating a simple field leadSource, I have some methods that creates some childs and update other records of other type) . I can achieve this by passing an extra parameter to utility method to tell about source, but i have then to edit hundred of other class that uses this utility method. If i could dynamically find out via which context this piece of code is running,then i would have to change only one class to satisfy my requirement.    Is there something in APEX that tells in what context the apex method was called? I observed some naive examples. Spheres, for example, when we cut out one point, can be embedded into $\mathbb{R}^n$. And if we cut out a measure zero set of a projective space, it can be embedded into the Euclidean space of the same dimension. So I wonder if all manifolds can be embedded into a same dimensional Euclidean space when we cut out a measure zero set? Can anyone prove it or disprove it by giving me some counterexamples? I've been using the == operator in my program to compare all my strings so far. However, I ran into a bug, changed one of them into .equals() instead, and it fixed the bug.  Is == bad? When should it and should it not be used? What's the difference?
