I get that the mods do not want people to abuse the edit system just to rack up the edit counts, but stack overflow is primarily about code. Therefore we must be exact.  I recently came across a post with a missing parenthesis, other than that it was spot on. This may only take someone a few seconds/minutes to find if they copy paste, but why make it hard to correct this.  Maybe a better idea would be to allow edits that are within code tags to be less than 6 char.
, to correct a misspelled library enum in an answer. Since the edit was only one character, I also had to add a superfluous sentence to get over the character limit required to edit a post.  I've hit this problem before in other edits, always in code snippets. Since the edit limit exists to prevent trivial edits, and since there are many cases where one character code edits are not trivial (= to == etc), would it make sense to have a lower edit minimum inside code snippets?
Completely uninstall an app on Lollipop Why is jumping into water from high altitude fatal? This is a lake of approximately 13 ha with 81 sampled depth points in about 10 transect lines:    Previously in ARCgis with a 50 ha lake and about a 100 depth sampling points, I got decent output with the TopotoRaster tool. However, no such exact equivalent seems to exist with QGIS or open source software.  In QGIS, I got the interpolated raster below, using the TIN method in the Raster Interpolation plugin. However, this seemed to be a lucky outcome, when I tried to repeat, I got different results (unsatisfactory) in spite of not really varying any parameter.    These are more urban (constructed) tanks than lakes, therefore, they are fairly regular in their bed profile, hence the low point sampling density. Some articles seemed to suggest Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) as the most suitable technique, yet I seemed to get the worst results with that (possibly owing to low point density).  Are there any heuristics which can be employed here considering the size of the lake, its regular profile and the point sampling density to arrive at which interpolation method is apt? (between Kriging, IDW, Bilinear, Cubic convolution, TIN or spline)  Or is it always a bit of trial and error? $3$ never divides $n^2+1$ Problem: Is it true that $3$ never divides $n^2+1$ for every positive integer $n$? Explain.  Explanation: If $n$ is odd, then $n^2+1$ is even. Hence $3$ never divides $n^2+1$, when $n$ is odd.  If $n$ is even, then $n^2+1$ is odd. So $3$ could divide $n^2+1$.  And that is where I am stuck. I try to plug in numbers for $n$ but I want a more general form of showing that $3$ can't divide $n^2+1$ when $n$ is even.

The OS is Windows 7, 32bit. Why are the Degrees of Freedom for multiple regression n - k - 1? For linear regression, why is it n - 2? I'm reading a textbook and I see this question:    So there are 200 women, and the DF is 196, implying that the equation for DF is $n - k - 1$. There are 3 variables: bp, age, and type so $k == 3$. What's the intuition behind this?  Also, why is the degrees of freedom for linear regression n - 2? Purpose of asterisk before a CSS property Block network access of a process? I have had no problems exporting .fbx files for Unity except recently some of my .fbx started to rotate the mesh. The asset is correctly oriented, but the mesh is rotated 90 degrees. Is there an explanation and fix for why this happens sometimes, and works properly otherwise? How to model effectively using exact measurements? I always struggle when trying to create a floor plan or furniture. How do I model using exact measurements. Proof of Laplace transform of real number powers: $\mathcal{L} \{ t^n \} = \frac{n!}{s^{n + 1}}$ horizontal alignment of dot over hat over bold greek letter! For some strange reason, this:   \hat{\dot{\bm{\phi}}}   prints the dot and the hat slightly off the left of the phi letter. Any ideas if this can be fixed? thanks. Using bm package for bold symbols.

Circular duplicates in the close review queue? I'm currently passing the pid on the command line to the child, but is there a way to do this in the Win32 API?  Alternatively, can someone alleviate my fear that the pid I'm passing might belong to another process after some time if the parent has died?
