I am currently a fixed-term faculty, with the hopes of a tenure-track position somewhere. The last two years I’ve bounced between fixed-term position, both in at least reasonable long-distance driving from where my fiancé and I live. Now a tenure track position has come available for next year still not close to us but again reasonable long distance driving (I've worked anywhere from 1.5-3 hours away).   I am hoping in the time it would take to get tenure at this new position, a tenure track position in our actual city will become available (pretty big metro). Would I be screwing myself to leave the long-distance tenure track position without tenure, if I got a tenure-track position in our local city? Would it be a red-flag that I’m even applying without tenure or could I explain location as the reason for the move in my cover letter?
I hope to receive my PhD in Mathematics in May of 2015, so I am currently applying for jobs.  Due to life circumstances, I'm fairly certain that I will only be staying at my next position for about 2 years.  Does this mean I shouldn't even try to apply for tenure-track positions?  Will a hiring committee not even consider me for the position if I'm not willing to commit to staying with them for a certain amount of time?  I would love to get a teaching/lecturing position at any institute of higher education (4-year research university, liberal arts school, community college), but as I look for openings, a lot of them are tenure-track assistant professor positions.  Should I go through the effort of sending in an application, or will that be a waste of my, and the committee's, time?  Thanks for any advice you have!  Edit (to address Nate's comment):  My wife is currently applying for 2 year graduate degree programs in various cities in the US, so I'm applying for jobs in the same cities.  When she finishes her program, we plan to move outside of the US (Africa or Southeast Asia), where I do hope to remain in academia, teaching mathematics to college-aged students.
Please warn about exceeding 50 question limit prior to asking a new question Scenario  I created a journey with a Contact Data entry event that is triggered via the API. A subscriber should be able to be injected multiple times and the values in the data extension are updated while the subscriber is in the journey. The updated values should determine the path the subscriber follows.  Setup  As changed data needs to be evaluated and the contactkey cannot be used as primary key, I added a random id as primary key and created an attribute group for the data extension in Data Designer. The data extension is linked to the contact's contactkey using a one-to-many relationship as a contact should be able to enter the journey multiple times.  In the journey I'm using a decision split that is configured to use contact data from the created attribute group and has two branches (as it checks a boolean value).  Problem  For multiple entries the decision split doesn't evaluate correctly and always leads to same branch (value equals false). I suppose the problem is that journey builder doesn't use the primary key to identify the correct row in the data extension. Is there any way to make sure the row is matched using this id and not the contactkey as this leads to some strange behaviour as described here: Can't execute terminal commands: "the command 'sudo' is available in '/usr/bin/sudo'" What is the difference between 32-bit and 64-bit Ubuntu? I've heard the 64-bit platform performs better and can detect more than 4GB of RAM. Also, while some apps haven't ported to 64-bit yet, ia32-libs lets a 64-bit machine run them.  If so, why not promote 64-bit over 32-bit? $1+a$ and $1-a$ in a ring are invertible if $a$ is nilpotent I have seen only the first three movies, so I don't know whether the other movies/TV series deal with this question or not. My main point is that in the movies, the terminator that travels back furthest in time is of the worst quality, and the quality increases with the time travel (meaning they travelled from a later time). What is a good explanation for this?  Note: I am not interested in the obvious not-in-universe explanation that they wanted something better and bigger for each new movie. Ubuntu 16.04 VIM without python support! Although Ubuntu 16.04 release notes mention that:  The default VIM package has been built against python3 instead of python2.  Yet after I installed vim with the following command:  sudo apt-get install vim   And checked:  vim --version   It showed:  -python -python3   Is it a bug? How do I get vim with Python support? Clear some doubts and questions about the Witch-king of Angmar I recently found out about the war between Arnor and Angmar, and was pretty shocked to learn that the Witch-king basically wiped the floor with the Dúnedain kingdom... I mean he's basically the sole reason Aragorn wanders around like a homeless person.  So with which army did the Witch-king defeat Arnor? Orcs? Men? Sorcery? Did he ever go to battle himself? Did he do this for laughs or by Sauron's orders?   How powerful was the Witch-king at this point, compared to in the Fellowship of the Ring and Return of the King? Were the other Nazgul with him in this war?   And it doesn't even matter to me if all of the eight Nazgul were with him, even if they all had their Rings of Power, and even if they had the largest of armies of Orcs, Men, Elves, Dwarves or even dragons (yes I'm exaggerating at this point), but just how do you defeat a kingdom full of Dúnedain?   We have all seen what Aragorn is capable of doing, so how do you defeat a kingdom worth of Aragorns?   And if it is not much to ask, does anyone know where I can read all about this war and more about the Witch-king? so far all I read about it was from the Internet, wikis, forums and alike, I'd like to read it from the source.

The specific point at which it fails to download changed - it seems to be a sourceforge reliability problem, but this has now been going on weeks and results in annoying popups as above all the time.  How do we get this fixed and/or how can I work around it for now. Why can't I join a friend's world on Minecraft PE? I'm on my tablet playing Minecraft PE. My boyfriend rang me and asked me to join his Minecraft PE world. However, I can't do it because the game doesn't show his world. What's wrong and how can I fix it? Normality test with large data set I think I am dealing with this issue   I have large data set(10k data points) that slightly diverges from normal, and I get p-value of 0. I am interested in having perhaps a more crude test that tells me if data is extremely divergent from normal, versus looking somewhat normally distributed. I am currently trying Kolmogorov-Smirnoff, and in both cases I just get p-value of 0. Any alternatives?  I also looked at this:   So, taking all this into consideration, is there any kind of test I can perform that distinguishes between data that's roughly normal, and not normally distributed at all?  I am using scipy. Is there a way to set an "Adventure Mode Boundary" in Minecraft? Is there a way to set an "Adventure Mode Boundary" in Minecraft?  I am trying to create this village where players can spawn in, and then set out to explore the world and build and do normal minecraft stuff. I don't want them to destroy this village, so I want them to be in adventure mode when they are in the village and then switch them to survival when they leave, and vice-versa. When they return to the village, they get switched back to adventure mode.  In other words, I want to set an "Adventure Mode Boundary" to protect buildings. I am working without mods. I am hoping there is an simple way using command blocks. As the title says. I use, among other things, the following in my lstset:  framerule=1pt, frame=tblr   Some places a page break happens in the middle of my \lstlisting. Fine. But sometimes the whole code of the listing appears on one page, but the bottom frame appears on the top of the next page!    I know that I can float a particular listing, but I have a long document with many listings, and I don't want to float all of them; Most of them also need to be exactly where they are declared. That they are broken over a page doesn't bother me that much.  Is there something that can stop this from happening, without me needing to adjust each individual listing?   had the same problem, but fixed it by removing spaces in front of keywords in a custom language definition. I too have a custom language definition, but his solution doesn't help me. I managed to recreate the situation without a custom language.  Edit and MWE  I managed to reproduce it in a minimal working example. 's a pastebin, if that's helpfull.  \documentclass[UKenglish,a4paper,11pt]{report} \usepackage{babel}  %% Adjustments \addtolength{\topmargin}{-1\baselineskip} \addtolength{\textheight}{4\baselineskip} \pretolerance = 2000 \tolerance = 5000   \hbadness = \tolerance  %% Smaller font \usepackage{mathptmx}  %% LISTINGS \usepackage[final]{listings} \lstset{     xleftmargin=1.5em,     framexleftmargin=1em,     framextopmargin=0.5ex, %%  THE FRAME:     framerule=1pt,     frame=tblr }  %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%  \usepackage{lipsum}     % for demo \begin{document} \subsubsection{Lorem}   % some fiddling to get the "wrong spacing just right": \lipsum[1-3] \subsubsection{Ipsum}  \lipsum[1] and then some text  \begin{lstlisting} Here is a listing with three lines of code; The bottom border is placed on the next page! \end{lstlisting}  Can you believe it..?! \end{document}   This MWE is rather long. My document inputs most of the listings stuff from files written by others, so I'm not sure what all of it does. If anyone sees some lines that they are sure is irrelevant, feel free to take it out of the MWE.  "Fun fact"  An equally silly situation occurs if you remove \usepackage{mathptmx}: The whole code listing will then appear on the new page, except for the top frame which is left on the bottom of the first page! If someone could claim me as a dependent, but they will not, am I required to check the "Someone can claim me..." box on my 1040? Let's say that an adult is living with his parents.  He meets all of the  of his parents.  Now let's say that he wants to file a tax return and claim the , as he did not receive any of the stimulus payments in 2020.  His parents decide not to claim him as a dependent on their taxes.  Can he leave the &quot;Someone can claim me as a dependent&quot; box on his  unchecked and claim the Recovery Rebate Credit?  This does not apply to me, but it could apply to many people this year, with the new Recovery Rebate Credit putting people in the situation where it could be advantageous to not be claimed as a dependent. Surprisingly, the  do not provide any guidance on checking this box in any way, that I can find.  I have seen it asserted many times in answers and comments here on Money.SE that because the form says, &quot;Someone CAN claim...,&quot; the box must be checked whether or not anyone actually will claim them.  But I have not yet found this explicitly stated in any official IRS website or publication.  The ideal answer here will cite an official source. Automatic line breaking of long lines of text? Here, it is just a example. I have a line:  aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa   Now, I want to let LaTeX automatically wrap the line according to the width of the text block/margins. Infusing olive oil with herbs I used node textures in a mesh I exported to .FBX.  I then imported it into Unreal Engine 4 and it didn't import any textures; I clicked the Upload Textures option in Unreal Engine.  Is there something I'm doing wrong or is it Blender? Spotlight overrides first character What's wrong: I hit CMD+SPACE to open up spotlight, typically type in the name of the application I want to start, hit enter and either the wrong app or no app at all will start, because the app name is missing the first character. "Learn to type" I hear you say but wait: as I enter the first character in the search bar, the cursor jumps to the beginning of the line and my second character input overrides the first one. So entering for example "ever", in order to start Evernote, will result in "ver". "php" to start PHPStorm will result in "hp" and start my damn HP printer app and so on.   This cursor jump to the beginning of the line will not happen in any other application and even if I accept the fact that my cursor jumps from time to time, I don't get why the second character overrides the first one. I'm not even sure if you can configure your Mac to always override the character at current position, but I surely haven't.  So this keeps on happening quite regularly and I cannot reproduce it. It just happens and when I try it again (close Spotlight, CMD+SHIFT again), it won't happen again, even if I give it like 5 tries or so.  It won't kill me but I am a software developer myself and this kind of bugs just leave me frustrated plus I can not imagine that this is the desired behavior. I have seen some talk about this issue on the internet but I did not come across a solution..  I have 3 MacBooks, different ages, all with German keyboard layouts and German set as system language and they all do this. Just mentioning this, because after that fact, I can barely imagine this isn't affecting at least a lot, if not all, MacBook (Pro?) users.   13" Pro 2010 or so 15" Pro Retina 2013 13" Pro Retina 2015   They all run El Capitan but I already encountered this before. I don't know the OS X version I had installed when I first stumbled across it. I have created screenShot() method to take the screenshot of the web page. When I used this method in my code first time it will capture the screen and it will save the image with image1 name. When I used the same method screenShot() to capture screens for other pages with the use of this.screenShot(); this will again capture the current web page screen but it stores With the same name image1 in the same folder (which overrides to previously captured screen image1).  Now, I have to take screenshots for the number of web pages &amp; want to store it into the same folder with different names like image1, image2, image3...etc. by using the same method screenShot().  public void screenShot() throws IOException, InterruptedException {     File scr = ((TakesScreenshot)driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);     File dest = new File("filPath/image1.png");     FileUtils.copyFile(scr, dest); }   Any workaround to achieve this scenario? Are the review queues planned for the iOS app? I enjoy reviewing on SO, is it currently possible to review on the iOS app? If not, is it planned to be implemented?
