JavaScript Multiline String
Creating multiline strings in JavaScript
I was wondering if $\mathbf{A}\times\mathbf{C}=\mathbf{B}$ and $\mathbf{A}\cdot{\mathbf{C}}= p$, is it possible to express C in terms of A, B, and p?  Note: A, B, C are vectors and p is a scalar.  Sorry if this question has been asked before. If so, can anyone give me a link to it? Why are Bitmap-Fonts used automatically? I have the following LaTeX-document:  \documentclass[a4paper,11pt]{article} \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc} \usepackage[ngerman]{babel}  \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}  \title{Sample} \author{Litb}  \begin{document}  \maketitle  \begin{abstract}  This is a report about my praxis phase at the company foo bar which I enjoyed. \end{abstract}  \end{document}   Much to my frustration, compiling with pdflatex creates a document with Bitmap-fonts. The reader's font-list shows that it uses Type3 fonts.  If I remove the fontenc loading, then I get a PDF using vector-fonts, but I heard that I should keep it, for having native German Umlauts working.  Does anyone know how I can get vector fonts with T1, and why it keeps using bitmap fonts if I have that package-load line in it? The best free and most up to date phylogenetic tree on the internet? I found phylogenetic tree in wikipedia is lacks of accuracy. It actually confusing with versions. Some terms was not scientifically accurate with dna analysis anymore  So are there anyone know where is the most updated datasource on the internet? Prior to the spell cast on Mjolnir, did Thor control lightning on his own? Short story identification: society partitioned off by high wall Reading another question today reminded me of a short story I read in the early 90s (probably written in 60s or 70s though). A society is blocked off by a really high wall; the story follows a girl who tries to get over the wall. I think she manages it with a hot air balloon. When she reaches the other side she meets an older man who had managed to scale the wall in his youth - his solution had been to use a flock of birds to carry him.  UPDATE  I seem to recall that it splits off an elite group of people - getting over the wall is like a rite of passage. Most people don't even bother to get over it (or even be concerned by its existence at all), but a few try. There might be some magic involved (on the other / better side), or they might just be more advanced technologically.  FINAL UPDATE  As pointed out in the answer, and confirmed by me re-reading the story, I was mistaken in a few details. The main protagonist is not a girl, it's a boy called Porgie. He doesn't use a balloon, it's a glider he made, assisted with a broom. Magic is involved, but it's on the inside, with technology on the outside. How/when to become independent in research as a graduate student? I am in the last months of my MSc and I have done my thesis. I have published some conference papers but most of them were literature reviews.  My MSc thesis is about solving wave equations by means of method of potentials and boundary elements. I am interested in pursuing research in another field (differential equations) but I have no idea how to start any topic that may lead to a journal publication.    By asking this question, I want to understand how a research student, whether a recently graduated MSc student or a PhD student, can start searching for a new research topic and develop some researches based on his own interests. Specially, I would like to know:   To what extent should a graduate student be dependent on faculty members? How can he be more independent and start his own research activities? Is it a good idea that the graduate work on another topic with the faculty member or work independently on a more recent research topic? If the person is in a research group or at the university, is it a good idea or is it ethical that he develop his own research interests, besides to the topics which are being developed in that institute? How should a graduate student manage this and make some progress in the research fields of his own interest? (In particular, sometimes the faculty members are not interested in the topics you are interested in and the person has to start his own research activity.)      And also, if this research is part of his independent research, at the time of publishing what affiliation should be used in the publications. Should it be "Independent Scholar" as mentioned in  or something else? This is important in academic publications, because sometimes, the person is in a research group, but he is publishing a paper as part of his own researches not the things he is doing in that institute; in this case, has he mention that institute's affiliation or use his own one? So please make it clear that how the affiliation would be when the person does research independently in the cases like when he is not working in a research group or he is working with a professor or research group but his publication is output of his own research activities? It is a little unclear. I noticed in this thread the OP successfully managed to connect a 30" cinema display to the new Macbook Pro USB-C, with full resolution:    I have the official Apple dual DVI adapter, going to a displayport > USB-C adapter like yours, however the screen does not fire up.  I then tried a multi adapter instead of the single displayport > USB-C, which worked but only at 1280 resolution:    Would the official Apple Dual DVI adapter not work? Contacting prospective advisors before graduate school applications - courtesy or annoyance? Last year, rather late during the MSc application cycle (after one round of funding was allocated - tardiness due to an abrupt change in my life situation), I emailed two professors from two schools that I most wanted to go to. I had perused their webpages and decided these professors had the specific research interests closest to my own.  My reason for contacting them before finishing my applications for their respective schools was that the applications included a large section for specific research questions that I wanted to investigate. So, I emailed these professors asking a bit about their work, because their webpages of course featured surface-level stuff.  One professor was very receptive and invited me to Skype with her so she could better explain herself and I could ask her questions. With her support, I was able to write an application that met her standards quite quickly.  The other professor told me - paraphrasing, of course - that he was too far into the process of choosing a new student for his research group to spend time helping me finish the application.  Let me be clear that the latter professor didn't say any harsh words and I have nothing bad to say about him. That said, the purpose of my question is to decide whether it's better for me as a prospective MSc student to email professors ahead of time like this. Was the latter's rejection likely due to my tardiness rather my emailing him? The more receptive professor made the point that she always wanted to have prospective MSc students write their own research proposals and get her approval before submitting the application. Is this common? If so, then I guess reaching out beforehand is a good thing to do, but earlier in the application cycle?  Thank you. Transvection matrices generate $ \operatorname{SL}_n(\mathbb{R}) $ Do I use ext4 for all partitions (such as / and /boot)? What are the other formats used for? I'm installing ubuntu onto a new laptop with 24gb SSD and a 500gb HDD. I wanted to put / and swap onto the SSD and /home onto the HDD. Is there anything I shouldn't use ext4 for?  I do not ever intend to dual boot. Ubuntu only. Is the motivation behind the introduction of measure theory the Lebesgue integral? In order to evaluate such an integral we need the length of each of the horizontal strip of width $h$. I have a question here. Why do we need such a general concept of measure? Length is a kind of measure, but why did Lebesgue think of so general a concept of "measure" when he just needed the length to evaluate his integrals? Is there any other motivation behind this ? What algorithm(s) are used by MoleculeModify's GenerateConformers? I'm using biblatex for my references.  Normally, if I use \cite{source1, source2, source3}, I get a citation like  [3, 45, 98]   If I now want to give a page number for one of them, it looks confusing imho, as I should get (did not try it out up to now, honestly)   [3, 45, 78, p. 23f, 98]   So imho it would make sense to change one of the separator from a comma to e. g. a semicolon like:  [3; 45; 78, p. 23f; 98]   Question 1: Does that make sense, or are there other conventions for citing sources with and without page numbers together?  (Up to now I collected the citations without page number in one cite command and added singular \cite[][p. xy]{} commands for those with page numbers., so I'd get:   [3, 45, 98][78, p. 23f]   )  the \cites[]{}[]{}[]{} could also do that, but it also uses the same separators for entries and postnotes.  Question 2: How could I change the separator globally for those number-citations from comma to semicolon in biblatex? biblatex: displaying all authors of multi-author works in the bibliography I'm using the  package to add citations and a bibliography to my LaTeX document. I've noticed that only the first author plus "et al." is displayed for works with more than three authors. That's fine with me for in-text-citations, but I'd rather have the complete author information in the bibliography. How can I do that? Proper fstab entry to mount a samba share on boot? Evaluating $\int_0^{\infty}\frac{\ln(x^2+1)}{x^2+1}dx$ How would I go about evaluating this integral? $$\int_0^{\infty}\frac{\ln(x^2+1)}{x^2+1}dx.$$ What I've tried so far: I tried a semicircular integral in the positive imaginary part of the complex plane, excluding the negative real axis, but had trouble calculating the residue at $z=i$ (perhaps there is a way of doing this that I don't know of). After that didn't work, I tried a rectangular box integral from $\epsilon$ to $R$, from $R$ to $R+i/2$, from $R+i/2$ to $-S+i/2$, from $-S+i/2$ to $-S+i\epsilon$, from $-S+i\epsilon$ to $-\epsilon+i\epsilon$ and finally a semicircle around the origin, radius $\epsilon$.   Any help would be appreciated. What is a virtual terminal for? How do we get the last day of the month from a given date Is there a function or method to give the last day of a month? For example if the date is 27 feb 2013, the last date should be 28 feb 2013 , it become 29 if its a leap year. if the date was 2 jan then it should return 31 Jan.  If there is no function then any ideas on how we can get this?  Thanks I realise it's unlikely that posting the file would cause a problem. However, since I know nothing about what a what's in a minidump file I thought I should check. MLE of $\theta$ when $X_1,\ldots,X_n $ are i.i.d with $P_\theta(x; \theta)=2x/\theta^2$ for $0\le x \le\theta$ Assume the standard situation, that is, let $X_1, \ldots , X_n$ be independent and identically distributed with $X_k ∼ P_\theta(x; \theta)$ , where $P_\theta(x; \theta) = 2x/\theta^2$  if $0\le x \le\theta$ and $0$ otherwise. It is required to estimate $\theta$. Show that the maximum likelihood estimator for $\theta$ is $\hat{\theta} = \max{[X_1, \ldots , X_n]}$ and then show that the cumulative distribution function of $\hat{\theta}$ is $F_\theta(z) = z^{2n}/\theta^{2n}$. Here's what i did so far: Maximum Likehood estimator: $L_x(θ) = \prod_{i = 1}^{n} P_θ(x_k)$ Here we have $P_θ(x_1,...,x_n;θ) = P_θ(x_1,θ).P_θ(x_2,θ)...P_θ(x_n,θ)$ Likehood = $L_{x,θ}(θ) =P_θ(x_1,θ).P_θ(x_2,θ)...P_θ(x_n,θ)= 2x_1/θ^2. 2x_2/θ^2.. 2x_n/θ^2 = [2^n.\prod_{i = 1}^{n}x_i]/θ^{2n}$ Log-likehood: $\sum_{i = 1}^{n}log(P_θ(x_1,...x_n;θ))= \sum_{i = 1}^{n}log(2x_i/θ^2)$ Is this correct so far? Im still not sure how to get to $\hat{θ} = max{[X_1, . . . , X_n]}$ As for the the cumulative distribution part to show $F_θ(z) = z^{2n}/θ^{2n}$: $F(z) = P(max({x_k})&lt;z) = P(x_1&lt;z).P(x_2&lt;z)..P(x_n&lt;z) = 2x_1/θ^2.2x_2/θ^2...2x_n/θ^n = 2^n.\prod_{i = 1}^{n}x_i/θ^2n$ Not sure if this is correct. Would really appreciate some help. Edit: From the answers below, we can deduce the the estimator is biased. What estimator would be unbiased? How can i find it?
