I have seen these on my floor several times now that spring has arrived and temps have started to go up. It is silvery in color, appears to have a hard and segmented shell, it kind of reminds me of a lobster. They are very small, the dark line in the picture is the grout between two tiles on my floor for scale. I am guessing it is about three quarters of a centimeter in length. I am in Utah.
I am in Portugal (Lisbon) at the moment, and when leaving my room late at night (12 pm ~ 04 am) I usually face about 4 of these arthropods in the corridors:    (For reference, the "line" in the image is a standard separation on the floor. This particular example of the animal is a little smaller than a nail.) They seem to have quite variable sizes and walk primarily on ground. Also, as implicit above, they seem to be active primarily during the late night. (I don't see them much often, if at all, during the morning/afternoon.) They can be quite fast, but if left unharmed do not move much. They also appear to take shelter inside the walls.  From what I searched, it seems possible that they are centipedes. I've seen sites saying that they are useful to keep other less pleasant animals at bay. My questions are: What are those animals, and should I leave them be or not?
Putting a matrix inside of caption gives \caption has an extra } I've recently read the Yahoo manifesto . They recommend to put the JavaScript inclusion at the bottom of the HTML code when we can.  But where exactly and when?  Should we put it before closing &lt;/html&gt; or after ? And above all, when should we still put it in the &lt;head&gt; section? Inconsistent accessibility error with the following c# code. Why? Question  The test scores of three groups of people are saved as separate vectors in R.  set.seed(1) group1 &lt;- rnorm(100, mean = 75, sd = 10) group2 &lt;- rnorm(100, mean = 85, sd = 10) group3 &lt;- rnorm(100, mean = 95, sd = 10)   I want to know if there is a significant difference in the medians between these groups. I know that I could test group 1 versus group 2 using the Wilcoxon test, like so.  wilcox.test(group1, group2)   However, this compares only two groups at a time, and I would like to compare all three simultaneously. I would like a statistical test that yields a p value at the 0.05 significance level. Could someone please help?  Edit #1 - Mood's median test  Following user Hibernating's suggested answer, I tried Mood's median test.  median.test &lt;- function(x, y){     z &lt;- c(x, y)     g &lt;- rep(1:2, c(length(x), length(y)))     m &lt;- median(z)     fisher.test(z &lt; m, g)$p.value }  median.test(group1, group2)   However, this approach allows me to test for a significant difference between the medians of only two groups at a time. I am not sure of how to use it to compare the medians of all three simultaneously.  Edit #2 - Kruskal-Wallis test  User dmartin's suggested answer appears to be more or less what I need, and allows me to test all three groups simultaneously.  kruskal.test(list(group1, group2, group3))   Edit #3  User Greg Snow helpfully notes in his answer that the Kruskal-Wallis test is appropriate as long as it makes strict assumptions that make it also a test of means. Render just part of a final image from Cycles? I'm using an older Nvidia chip that hates running viewport renders, and I need to check if changes to the materials on a few objects not far from the center of my scene are (I'm rendering a floorplan with an orthographic camera from above, so I'm looking down on objects and want to check if the displacement materials are working correctly).  Is there any way to select a bit of the image and have it render first or without having to render the rest of the image? I'm aware that you can tell the image to render from an edge, but my stuff's about equidistant from either side of the scene. I have a complicated integral to solve. I tried to split ($101 x$) and proceed but I am getting a pretty nasty answer while evaluating using parts. are there any simpler methods to evaluate this integral?  $$ \int\!\sin (101x)\cdot\sin^{99}(x)\, dx $$ What does this box icon represent? Since I started playing, I have seen this icon in the bottom right of my screen. Clicking it does nothing.  What does this icon represent?  I'll add a PC tag, as I'm playing on PC, and it could be related to that. Automate on-site plagiarism detection There have been many cases where on-site plagiarism has been coincidentally discovered by  good citizens either while looking for , or while answering questions merely to find out one of their  etc.   Most of the cases have been identified as verbatim copy-paste of the original answer.  I understand plagiarism is considered very offensive and can't be tolerated. It is very unprofessional and unfair. So here are my questions (and possibly a feature request):   Could verbatim plagiarized content be automatically detected?  Should it be pushed into a review queue similar to low quality posts for other users to confirm? I am really satisfied that $(x \to a) ≠(x=a)$ and if that is not right , Then all the process of $Limits$ is dividing by zero and that is a crime.  Since $(x \to a) + h = (x=a)$ , $h ≠ 0$,So Why does $f(x \to a) = f(x = a)$ ?  NOTE:I am talking about continuous function.

Homeomorphism is bijective Here is my question:  Is a homeomorphism, that is, a continuos function whose inverse function is also continuous, always bijective? Execute a program at login I'm running Arch-Linux ARM on a Raspberry Pi.  My project goal is to have a barcode scanner attached to the Pi that forwards the scanned messages to a server in a LAN.  To harden the system against power outages etc. and minimize required user interaction, I wish to set it up so that a certain user is logged in automatically at startup (done and works) and a specific program is to be run at startup (done and works but not as intended).  I've done this so far by adding  exec mono scannerSoftware.exe 127.0.0.1 1234 randomString   to /home/certainUser/.bash_profile so it gets executed only once even when I'm switching back and forth to root (in contrast to bashrc).    The particular problem I am having: When I launch the system, it works as intended (login as certainUser, starting scannerSoftware.exe); BUT if I want to switch users and hit Ctrl+C, it restarts the login process, logging certainUser in again and running the program again => back to where I came from.  My guess as to why this happens is that the sys detects "login not complete, better start it again".  I could circumvent this by spamming Ctrl+C right around the login so that I practically interrupted it. Of course, this is not good practice. Suffice it to say it is not practical at all.  My question: How can I set it up so the program gets executed AFTER login is complete so that Ctrl+C'ing out brings me to a normal bash prompt as certainUser instead of beginning the endless login-cycle?  EDIT: I'm not using any graphical interface or such, only commandline (bash on tty), because when done the system won't even have a display. When ever I need to kill a background process I do ps -e | grep &lt;process_name&gt;  Which prints something like this 1766 ? 00:00:13 conky , Then I use the process ID to kill it like so kill 1766 .   Is there any way I can simplify this ? Make it quicker ? reduce the amount of typing ? I googled it but I couldn't find the answer... maybe I didn't seek it in the proper way. My question is if &quot;to&quot; must be repeated in sentences such as the following ones:   In the past, women used to do the housework and to take care of children.

What would be a good term for continuous testing post-deployment? I'm thinking of live production sites here, where there is a continuous community or much content being updated, sort of like a newspaper site or community site (the one I work at is a healthcare improvement company) and we have news articles, programs and so on.  While the underlying code is tested and released there are often production issues that come up, maybe certain pages stop working, style sheets suddenly don't appear like they did due to a service patch or some tweak done to improve production security or performance.  There is Acceptance Testing for when a deployment goes out to make sure things work right, Regression Testing to make sure nothing has been broken since previous releases.  Considering we've done these types of tests and things are working fine what would you call testing, or checking, the site to make sure things still work fine?  To be sure new pages are being crawled for search indexing?  To check that newly added pages are using plug-ins correctly?  Or so on.  My manager and I were discussing some issues that have cropped up and decided we needed to do something like this, but then to sort of note it in our status reports we didn't really have a name for it.  Anyone done this and have a term that might be good?  Or would you consider it covered by something like Continuous Acceptance Testing or some such term?

Both my girlfriend and I play on the PS4 at home, so there are 2 profiles on PS4. When we set our profile in PS4, we set the console as the primary console.  Now we want to buy PSN Plus subscription, and I want to know if the same subscription can be used in both profiles, or  only in one.   In case the same subscription can be used in both profiles, how can we set it up? Or is automatic?
