Has shinys been more likely to find it pokemon X and Y because I saw it was 2x more likely to find. Is this true?
I've been seeing people getting millions of shiny Pokémon in X &amp; Y without effort. My first shiny on Pokémon X (Corsola) also took only 93 fishing encounters.  I'm wondering: is the chance of finding a shiny in Pokémon X &amp; Y better than it used to be?   If so, what is the chance to find a wild shiny in X &amp; Y? How does it compare to the previous games in the series)?
How can I check dependency list for a deb package Infinite algebraic extension of a finite field I have recently started studying algebraic field extensions and I got to know that algebraic closures $\overline{F}$ of finite fields $F$ are infinite. Therefore, I've asked myself the following question and couldn't come up with an answer.  Suppose $F$ was a finite field, i.e. $|F| &lt; \infty$. Is it possible to construct an algebraic extension $F'$ of $F$ sucht that $|F'| = \infty$ and $F' \subsetneq \overline{F}$? Meaning, that $F'$ is not algebraically closed. Is it possible to create a counter just with wiring? With the new logic gates in the 1.3.1 update, is it possible to create some wiring circuit that counts how many times a trigger was activated? In other words, is it possible to make a circuit that outputs a trigger every two input triggers?  I've done some experimenting but the nature of wires and there being no intrinsic on/off state in Terraria makes it pretty counter-intuitive compared to real world logic circuits. How do I add custom validations to Webform?

Inductive proof of a formula for Fibonacci numbers May someone help me? I am trying to use induction to prove that the formula for finding the $n$-th term of the Fibonacci sequence is:   $$F_n=\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}⋅\left(\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}\right)^n-\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}⋅\left(\frac{1-\sqrt{5}}{2}\right)^n.$$  I tried to put $n=1$ into the equation and prove that if $n=1$ works then $n=2$ works and it should work for any number, but it didn't work. I need to prove that this formula gives the $n$th Fibonacci number. When two accounts are merged, all the posts/votes are moved over to the "master" account, and the other account ("slave"?) is deleted. The merge is propagated network-wide, so a similar thing happens on each site.  But, this does not happen to the chat user. The "slave" chat user is kept, with a 404 parent profile link. I feel that the chat user should be merged as well, re attributing all the chat messages.  Thoughts? When running umount /path I get:  umount: /path: device is busy.   The filesystem is huge, so lsof +D /path is not a realistic option.  lsof /path, lsof +f -- /path, and fuser /path all return nothing. fuser -v /path gives:                    USER        PID ACCESS COMMAND /path:            root     kernel mount /path   which is normal for all unused mounted file systems.  umount -l and umount -f is not good enough for my situation.  How do I figure out why the kernel thinks this filesystem is busy? Is convex hull of a finite set of points in $\mathbb R^2$ closed?

RSA encryption with private key and decryption with a public key When using the RSA cryptosystem, does it still work if you instead encrypt with the private key and decrypt with the public key?

Show that $\lim_{x \to +\infty}\left(f(x)+f'(x)\right)=0 \Rightarrow \lim_{x \to +\infty} f(x)=0$ How to show that $\lim_{x \to +\infty}(f(x)+f'(x))=0 $ implies $\lim_{x \to +\infty} f(x)=0$? Getting a collection of index values using a LINQ query Is there a better way to do this?  string[] s = {"zero", "one", "two", "three", "four", "five"};  var x =  s .Select((a,i) =&gt; new {Value = a, Index = i}) .Where(b =&gt; b.Value.StartsWith("t")) .Select(c =&gt; c.Index);   i.e. I'm looking for a more efficient or more elegant way to get the positions of the items matching the criteria. I have a psd that has rounded rectangle. I need to create a new rounded rectangle with the same radius. How do I determine the radius used on that said rounded rectangle?   I feel like this is such an awful question but thanks in advance for answering. Quantum levitation, flux pinning -- basically, when a superconductor floats above a permanent magnet, is really fascinating. But does the strength of the magnetic field influence the superconductor's height? And what relationship/formula suggests this?  For example, if I had a coil wrapped around a metal object and then ran a small current through it, a small magnetic field would be generated and a superconductor exposed to it would float about it at some height that I put it on.  But what if I increased the current, so that the magnetic field also increased? What happens to the superconductor? Does its height change? Or does it just get harder to "pull out" of its levitating state? What early-2000s show about dimension hopping has a character who can swap limbs? An earlier question asked about a show that made me think of another one I can't remember.  It was a live action show about exploring different dimensions, and I think the main character was searching for his dad.  I remember seeing it in the US, but I don't know if it was limited to that.  I'm a little fuzzy on the details, but I think the main character could swap his limbs or something like that. I can get the element like this $("#txtEmail") but I'm not sure how to get the actual value. Make Bash autocomplete guess the closest approximation I have a somewhat uncomfortable keyboard on my laptop, resulting in that I sometimes misspell things in Bash and when pressing Tab for an auto-completion nothing happens.   Is it possible to have Bash guess what I meant to type, by for example when wanting to change directory to Documents and then mistyping cd ocum[TAB], given no other folder beginning with "ocum" is present, Bash interprets it as cd Documents/ since it is the closest possible action to do?   Or is this idea terribly complicated to achieve? Recently the cranks on my bike started to creak. I checked with my usual "bike-bible" . They recommended dis-assemble, lubricate, re-assemble.  So I did that.  Remove cranks. Remove spindle. Clean. Lubricate. Reassemble.  No, the creak is still there.  (To find out the source-area of the sound I had a friend riding the bike slowly while I ran alongside listening. And the sound where coming from the area of the bottom bracket/cranks. I am happy no neighbor saw me...)   For each revelation of the cranks there are two creak-noises.  If I, when on the bike, push down with both feet I hear a noise. Turn 180 degrees without pressure, push down again and there is the noise again. If I am "too soft", low pressure there are no sound. Since I have clips I have tried to only work with one foot to keep a constant load during a revelation, there where no detectable sound then.  Anyone have any idea what is wrong on the bike? And how I should fix it?  /Leif Distributions other than the normal where mean and variance are independent I was wondering if there are any distributions besides the normal where the mean and variance are independent of each other (or in other words, where the variance is not a function of the mean). Is torque as fundamental a concept as force? I used to think that torque and force were equally “fundamental”. In other words, my understanding was that we usually use Cartesian coordinates in many common problems because it is a convenient system, so as a result instantaneous forces which act in straight lines seem “easier” mathematically but torques require some extra “baggage”. This baggage includes typically teaching that torque is defined in terms of force.  But if say we happened to choose polar coordinates for the problem the situation would appear the other way around. So it would be arbitrary if we chose to define forces in terms of torques instead.  But later on I learned that angular momentum is conserved independently of regular linear momentum (IIRC). Given the definitions of force &amp; torque as derivatives of momentum, this makes it seem much less certain that one should define either torque in terms of force or vice versa — it gives the impression they are more distinct than it first seemed.  That said, as far as I know a lot of physics is about defining &amp; describing “fundamental forces” — not “fundamental torques”.   So is choosing to use either force or torque as the basis of laws &amp; problems arbitrary? Or is there an actual fundamental rationale to when one or the other should be used?
