When I open the file in Vim, I see strange ^M characters.  Unfortunately, the world's favorite search engine does not do well with special characters in queries, so I'm asking here:   What is this ^M character? How could it have got there? How do I get rid of it?
Houston, we have a porblem Since  in titles, and there's not even a way  (or ) we all know users just get around that filter by typing various permutations of the word "problem".  The filter has . The bottom line there was:     "Hacking around" the filter is in fact very very rare.   I beg to disagree. I tried searching Stack Overflow for the following variations of the title:  problme probelm probeml probmle probmel prolbem prolbme prolebm prolemb prolmbe prolmeb proeblm proebml proelbm proelmb proembl proemlb   These are just a couple of permutations from 5040 possible ones. I also tried searching for variations with left out letters, like proble, or prblm. Here's just a graph of a subset from maybe 20 searches—but in reality, there might be more ways to get around the filter:    Was this ever intended? I know it saves a lot of bad titles from being created, but on the other hand it enforces even worse titles as well. 3% based on the  aren't much, but they're 3% crap the filter actively provokes.  Now, my questions up for discussion are:   What are we going to do about this large number of porblematic posts? It seems almost impossible to fix all those. We now have a really good review system that allows people to dig through low quality posts the entire day, so that'd be a way to address this of course. Are there any plans of getting rid of the filter again? This, at least, would give you a good indicator of poor quality. If a post title contains the word "problem" you instantly know something's off. Why not have it reviewed? I understand that some people will choose a better title after being blocked, but I don't even want to start looking at the number of those who merely did a s/problem/issue, or even worse, just used "problems" (because that's not blocked, just sayin').   In the end I'm just thinking if there was a way to clean up the back log on this, or how to prevent more posts of this sort in the future, even with a title filter in place if it has to be. No such file or directory but I can see it! I'm trying to run a python script, on a headless Raspberry PI using winSCP and get the following error message:  Command '"./areadetect_movie_21.py"' failed with return code 127 and error message /usr/bin/env: python : No such file or directory.

I try a similar python script, in the same directory, with the same python shebang, the same permissions and using the same user pi, and it works.  I also do a ls and I can see the file, so I don't know why it will not run. Looking for title of sci fi short story about attempts to colonise planet (Venus?). Scientist and his dog are main characters Arbitrary precision spline interpolation How can I find out if someone really holds a doctoral degree? We're currently interviewing candidates at my company and I'd like to verify if some of them really have the academic degrees they claim. One in particular claims a doctoral degree from a German university.  I've contacted the university, and the dean wrote back saying that they could not provide this information without the written consent of the individual.  I found this policy rather odd; I would have thought that the granting of a doctoral degree was public information. Is this normal? Is there anything else I can do to find out?  I obtained from the library a copy of the thesis in question but it was in German. I also found through Google  which appears to be a list of dissertations published by that university, but it is unclear whether these are doctoral dissertations or not. The person in question and his dissertation are in that list. A very basic ring theory question, which I am not able to solve. How does one show that    $\mathbb{Z}[i]/(3-i) \cong \mathbb{Z}/10\mathbb{Z}$. Extending the result: $\mathbb{Z}[i]/(a-ib) \cong \mathbb{Z}/(a^{2}+b^{2})\mathbb{Z}$, if $a,b$ are relatively prime.   My attempt was to define a map, $\varphi:\mathbb{Z}[i] \to \mathbb{Z}/10\mathbb{Z}$ and show that the kernel is the ideal generated by $\langle{3-i\rangle}$. But I couldn't think of such a map.

Why do some materials reflect (metals) and other materials reflect and refract (glass) from the quantum perspective? Recently I was asked to explain the difference between reflection and total internal reflection from a purely conceptual standpoint (no math).    Let me explain what I already know.  Reflection and refraction at the quantum level are the same thing.  Light is a photon.  A photon is a discrete particle that has wave characteristics (a finite wave traveling like a bullet).  As the photon travels it collides with electrons in the matter of the medium it is traveling in.  Depending on the energy of the photon and the allowed energy bands of the medium the photon cause the electron to jump up a level.  If the photon is absorbed then the medium will increase its motion (at the macro scale increasing its temperature).  If the photon is not absorbed it will be re-emitted (really as a new photon). I have read and watched Feynman's QED lectures and book and have a pretty good understanding of his process for determining how all these paths come together to give the net path of the photon.  The general rule of thumb is that the photon wants to take the path which requires the least amount of time.  I understand how this principle goes to explain refraction and reflection.    What I don't seem to understand is why does one material seem to cause a higher percentage of refraction compared to another (metal vs. glass).  What about the electron configuration of a the medium changes the net effect of the absorption and re-emissions of the photons?  Is there a change in the probability of the photon being re-emitted in a reverse direction?  Is there a farther distance the photon can travel before being incident onto an electron?  This is the part where my understand breaks down.    When you have hit the critical angle in a medium that refracts and the light completely reflects, are the photons moving is the same manner as they would be in a material that always reflects? How does this connect to the question in the previous paragraph?  I know I have a bunch of mini questions embedded in answering this one larger question.  Any help on any of the parts would be greatly appreciated? Now the cubs are growing, fed on mom's milk, but mom herself hasn't eaten in five months, and is getting thinner by the day.
