	Regarding multiple comparisons, could someone please explain me why the power of false discovery rate (FDR) is greater than the power of family-wise error rate (FWER)? 
 | 
	I have read that controlling FDR is less stringent than controlling FWER, such as in :     FDR controlling procedures exert a less stringent control over false discovery compared to familywise error rate (FWER) procedures (such as the Bonferroni correction). This increases power at the cost of increasing the rate of type I errors, i.e., rejecting the null hypothesis of no effect when it should be accepted.   But I was wondering how it is shown to be true mathematically?  Is there some relation between FDR and FWER?

  "Sci-fi story where all 'citizens' had shares in a global company Not everyone was a citizen though, there was a significant underclass who had no shares.  One character was a celebrity in some sort of combat game who was followed by camera drones & used drugs to suppress puberty so he waa an eternal 'child', I have the impression that medical science allowed virtual immortality short of accidents.  One character (may have been the same one) had had a 'previous life' & had committed personality suicide by some form of mind wipe bequeathing his worldly possessions to the new personality that would eventually develop in his old body.  I think the motive for this 'suicide' was essentially boredom, he'd lived a long time.  The mind wipe in question was pretty extensive & all encompassing, he had to be cared for & educated from scratch as if a newborn baby in an adult body, nappies & all (but I'm pretty sure this was purely backstory in the book I read).  He also had miniature nano organisms (or bots?) like miniature worms or millipedes that complimented his immune system & aided healing, they were self replicating, pretty sure they were some sort of bioengineered organism tailored to his DNA rather than bots  but not 100% on that.  There was an organism spanning a large area on the planet that absorbed (or consumed) anything that wandered into it but saved the DNA of anything it had previously absorbed & might randomly reproduce any animal plant or individual it had previously absorbed fully formed.  One of the characters fell into this but got pulled out before the full effects took hold, as a result he grew leaves from his head & his immune system was then constantly battling with the 'infection'.  When did I read this? probably some time in the 80's in the UK.  When was it written? I haven't a clue, sorry.  It was a paperback, probably something I had out of a library, because I never get rid of anything I've bought myself so I'd still have it & be able to dig it out if it wasn't a library loan.

  "Why Didn't People Think That Voldemort Died After His Attack on Baby Harry? After the Avada Kedavra curse rebounded from Harry onto Voldemort, Voldemort disappeared. I'm curious as to why so many key players believed Voldemort was still \"alive\" somewhere, his powers decimated, but, under the right circumstances, able to return to full power. It seems the witches and wizards in chapter one of Philosopher's Stone, The Boy Who Lived, were happy to believe that Voldemort was gone forever. Why didn't everyone believe Voldemort had died, rather than just disappeared? Was it the lack of a body? Or were there other reasons?  Here's a couple of quotes from Philosopher's Stone if anyone wants to review them. Otherwise, just disregard.     ‘A fine thing it would be if, on the very day You- Know-Who seems to have disappeared at last, the Muggles found out about us all. I suppose he really has gone, Dumbledore?’   ‘It certainly seems so,’ said Dumbledore. ‘We have much to be thankful for.’   Philosopher's Stone - page 13 - Bloomsbury - chapter 1, The Boy Who Lived   ‘But what happened to Vol– sorry – I mean, You-Know-Who?’   ‘Good question, Harry. Disappeared. Vanished. Same night he tried ter kill you. Makes yeh even more famous. That’s the biggest myst’ry, see ... he was gettin’ more an’ more powerful – why’d he go?   ‘Some say he died.

  "The Fourier transform of a \"comb function\" is a comb function? Let $f(x) = \\sum_{n=-\\infty}^{\\infty} \\delta(x - n)$, where $\\delta$ is the Dirac delta function. This function $f$ (a \"comb function\") is important in signal processing because evenly sampling a function $g$ can be viewed as multiplying $g$ pointwise with $f$. This idea is the first step towards understanding how to approximate the Fourier transform of $g$, given evenly spaced samples of $g$. The next step is to note that $\\hat{gf} = \\hat{g}*\\hat{f}$, where $\\hat{f}$ is the Fourier transform of $f$ and $*$ denotes convolution.  Is it true that $\\hat f$ is also a comb function? If that statement isn't quite right, what is the correct statement?

  "What kind of mortar should I use to point a fieldstone foundation?  The old mortar is crumbling, and sandy mortar is falling out onto the basement floor.  I plan to remove the crumbling mortar (see ), then point the foundation with new mortar.  But what kind of mortar should I use?    I have had a hard time finding definite answers about fieldstone foundations on the Internet, but I'll include some of what I've found here.  First,  has this to say about fieldstone foundations:     Most fieldstone foundations have, or had at some time, a thin mortar coating on the face of the stone. The purpose of this coating was to assist in holding the stones in place. This thin mortar coating will inevitably flake off from any moisture migration, revealing the surface of the stones. As this coating continues to erode, the mortar between the stones will begin to crumble and the soft, sandy mortar begins to slowly fall out onto the basement floor. It looks like a small pile of sand at the base of the foundation. When this occurs, tuck pointing is needed to refill the voids where the old mortar has fallen out. It's very important that you scrape away or chip away the crumbling mortar (in between the stones) in order to establish a small cavity or key way which can hold the new mortar that is being applied. Never apply new mortar over any old crumbling mortar, as this is a temporary fix and it will only last a couple years. All crumbling mortar must be removed in order for the newly applied surface to bond properly. While upgrading your field-stone foundation, only work on a section at a time. Do not remove the old mortar throughout the entire basement all at once. Complete all removal, tuck pointing and parging one section at a time.       To avoid annual tuck pointing, you should finish the foundation with a complete top coating of mortar. Be sure it is lime based. This top coat does not have to look like a stone artisan's creation: It merely has to serve the purpose of keeping the newly installed mortar in place. It's sort of like applying a frosting to a cake.    seems to suggest that I should be using not straight type-S hydrated lime, but type-S mortar, which consists of one part Portland cement, ¼ to ½ part lime, and an amount of sand equal to 2¼ to 3 times the total volume of cement and lime.  Do I need to analyze the existing mortar to make sure that the new mortar has the same lime content, as ?  Should I expect the new mortar to start crumbling and releasing dust soon, or should it stay solid and dust-free for many years?",

Prove that:      a) $2a\\in Z(A)$, $\\forall a\\in M$, where $Z(A)$ denotes the centre of the ring $A$;   b) $ab=ba$, $\\forall a,b\\in M$.   My attempts revolved around the fact that an idempotent element in a reduced ring is central. So, since for $a\\in M$ we have that $(a^2)^2=a^2$, it follows that $a^2\\in Z(A)$, $\\forall a\\in M$. The next thing I wanted to use in order to solve a) was that $Z(A)$ is a subring of $A$, so if I had proved that $(a+1)^2 \\in Z(A)$, $\\forall a\\in M$, then we would have reached the desired conclusion. However, I couldn't prove this and I honestly doubt that it is true. Another idea that I had was to prove that $M$ is a subring of $A$. Of course, this didn't work out because I cannot even prove that $M$ is closed under addition. Again, I don't know if this is true and it most likely isn't. As for b), I think that a) should be of use, but I don't know how. It is a well-known problem that a ring with $x^3=x$ for any $x$ in that ring is commutative, but since $(M,+,\\cdot)$ is almost definitely not a ring, this doesn't help. EDIT: Is there any chance that this question is simply wrong? I tended to believe this before asking it here too, but since nobody has made any progress on it until now I am even more inclined to think so.",

	When a particle keeps "accelerating" near the speed of light, is the energy gained expressed in linearly gained impulse, or relativistic mass? 
 | 
	Some people say that mass increases with speed, some people say that the mass of an object is independent of its speed.  I understand how some (though not many) things in physics are a matter of interpretation based on one's definitions. But I can't get my head around how both can be 'true' is any sense of the word.  Either mass increases or it doesn't, right?  Can't we just measure it, and find out which 'interpretation' is right? e.g.: (in some sophisticated way) heat up some particles in a box and measure their weight?  ------------------------------  UPDATE  Right, so I've got two identical containers, each with identical amounts of water, each on identical weighing scales, and each in the same g field. If one container has hotter water, will the reading on its scale be larger than the other? If the answer is yes, and g is constant, does this mean that the m in w=mg has got bigger?

  "In  it says that flagged comments can be handled automatically if flagged repeatedly (3 + (score / 3) flags = deletion). Which is great; mods are busy people.  In , the venerable Bill the Lizard says that if all comments on a post are obsolete, you can flag the post (or one of the comments) with a custom flag saying that they're all obsolete, and the mod can remove them with one fell swoop. Problem is, that requires a mod.  What should I do when some of the obsolete comments are mine? I can't flag my own comments, and I don't like raising custom flags if I can avoid it.  You're wondering why I don't just delete them. There are two scenarios where I don't, at least not immediately:   Someone has commented with incorrect information. In that situation, I reply to the comment telling them how they've got it wrong. (Sometimes, of course, they quite correctly reply telling me how I got it wrong, which is neither here nor there — we still end up with obsolete comments. :-) ) Frequently, they reply saying \"you're right\" but (near universally) leave the comment lying around. I can (and do) then comment again saying \"Let's clean these up\" and flag their comments as obsolete. But I can't flag mine. Nor do I want to remove mine while the incorrect comment is still there; it leaves a confusing situation for anyone coming to the post later. Someone has commented with correct information. In that situation, if appropriate (e.g., the post author isn't busily editing at the same time and I know enough to do it properly), I'll edit the comment into the post and reply with \"You're right, edited that in.\" and flag their comment as obsolete. These are rarely removed by the commenter. And again I can't flag mine.   The first scenario is the more problematic, since I can go back 10-20 minutes later and remove my \"edited that in\" comment and there's no harm if their comment is still there.  I currently bookmark and check back periodically, but that's labor-intensive and I'd like a better way.  Ideally, I'd want to tie my comment to one I've flagged so that it's deleted automatically if the other one is (by flagging, or by the commenter). That's a fair bit of development, though, I'm guessing.  What should I do? Go with a custom flag saying \"The conversation between X and me is now obsolete,\" even though that means dumping it on a mod?",

	Show that there is a positive integer $n$ such that $G \cong \ker(\phi^{n}) \times \phi^{n}(G)$ Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and let $\phi: G \rightarrow G$ be a group homomorphism. I am trying to show that there is a positive integer $n$ such that $G \cong \ker(\phi^{n}) \times \phi^{n}(G)$.  I know that since $G$ is abelian we have that $\ker(\phi^{k})$ and $\phi^{k}(G)$ are normal subgroups of $G$ for any $k$  I also suspect we have the following towers which stabilize at $m$ and $m'$  $$\phi(G) \unrhd \phi^{2}(G) \unrhd \cdots \unrhd \phi^{m}(G)=\phi^{m+1}(G)=\cdots$$  $$\ker(\phi) \unlhd \ker^{2}(\phi) \unlhd \cdots \unlhd \ker^{m'}(\phi)=\ker^{m'+1}(\phi)=\cdots$$  I know that if given a group of the form $HK$ where $H$ and $K$ are normal subgroups of $HK$ and $H\cap K=1$ then $H \times K \cong HK$. I want to apply this to this situation but I am unable to show how write $G$ as a product $HK$  Resolution One of the comments directed me to the following article:  The last part of which answers the question. Below is what is says:  Choose $n=\max(m,m')$, then we have for $x \in \ker^{n}(\phi) \cap \phi^{n}(x)$, this means that $x=\phi^{n}(y)$ for some $y \in G$. This gives:  $0=\phi^{n}(x)=\phi^{2n}(y)$ which means that $y \in \ker^{2n}\phi=\ker^{n}{\phi}$. and then we have that $0=x=\phi^{n}(y)$.  The answer below kindly points out that every element $x$ is contained in one of the cosets of $G/\ker^{n}(\phi)$, this means that $x=k+g$ for some $k \in \ker^{n}(\phi)$ and $g \in G$. We also have that $g=\phi^{n}(h)$ for some $h \in G$. Writing $x=k+\phi^{n}(h)$ essentially shows that $G=\ker(\phi^{n}) + \phi^{n}(G)$. Using the fact above, the claim follows.

If there are clearly duplicate titles, then as a reader/reviewer would be helpful to know which ones are already closed as duplicates so you can either:   Use the remaining open questions to focus on which of those is the canonical answer to close this with. Use the closed questions to find the canonical answer (which failed for me with my route of clicks).",

	Are branch points always isolated? A thought just hit my mind that whatever branch points I have seen to make some functions holomorphic are always isolated i.e. there exists a neighbourhood around them which contains no branch points.  So I thought whether they are always isolated?  I looked up for a proof and even thought over it but couldn't find a suitable approach.  So my question is whether branch points are always isolated? 
 | 
	Set of branch points isn't discrete, but branch points are isolated? I refer to , which I understand says that the branch points of a nonconstant holomorphic map $F: X \to Y$ between Riemann surfaces $X$ and $Y$, both of which are not necessarily compact, form a discrete subset of range $Y$ of the map $F$. (Not sure if 'connected' is part of the definition of Riemann surfaces in other textbooks, but it is here.) Question 1: Do I understand correctly, and is this indeed true? What else I understand:  $A$ is a discrete subspace/subset (I just assume everything here is the usual subspace topology) of $B$ if and only if every singleton subset of $A$ is open in $A$ if and only if every point of $A$ is isolated.  This overflow question () seems to suggest this is not true but is true if $F$ is proper. However, I'm not sure the definitions of Riemann surface are the same (maybe some answers use definitions where Riemann surfaces are not necessarily connected or something).  2.1. I know $F$ is 'discrete' (meaning that its fibres are discrete; here, i refer to a ): see definition before Lemma 3.1, on p. 7), by Proposition II.3.12, and open, by open mapping theorem, which is Proposition II.3.8, but I'm not sure these help show $F$ is proper or are otherwise helpful. Ostensibly 'discrete' maps don't map discrete subsets to discrete subsets.   This stackexchange question () seems to suggest this is true.  I think this is true if $F$ is injective or at least something like locally injective. (Please don't make me type up all the stuff I did for this part.) However based on the question in (3) and based on the , which I think uses the term 'branch points' to mean the same thing as what Miranda means by 'ramification points' (and thus is different from Miranda's 'branch points'), it seems that no neighbourhood $U$ of a ramification point $p \in U \subseteq X$ of $F$ is such that the restriction $F|_U$ is injective.  Kinda related:    This page () says    Now, the ramification and branch points must form a discrete set  I don't think the page assumes anything like $F$ is proper.  The  text in (2.1) actually seems to assume proper based on the '3.7. Proper holomorphic maps' part, but said part refers to 'Lemma 3.17', so I think proper can be replaced with closed. Maybe $F$ is closed or something.  Kinda related (see Question 2 below):     says    If $F$ is proper then the image $\Delta = F(R)$ is discrete in $Y$.   This seems to have all the same assumptions as with Miranda. Ostensibly, either Miranda is wrong or there's some higher level machinery that allows us to omit $F$ proper.  Question 2: To possibly generalise this, what are the minimum requirements on $F, X$ and $Y$ to make $F$ map discrete subsets to discrete subsets? I mean, I'm not sure we really need 'holomorphic' here. I have a feeling this applies perhaps to maps that are just open/closed, continuous and discrete and spaces that are just Hausdorff and locally compact or something.  (again) Kinda related:

	Windows 10 licence integrity on hard drive swap I need to replace a user's laptop to a new one. The guy had to install a shit ton of customers' apps on it and I'd rather not reconfiguring a full windows instance and reinstalling each app.  So I thought about swapping his current hard drive to the new laptop directly. My concern though is about the windows licence on the new computer.  If I'm not wrong, windows 10 licences are tied to the BIOS but how will the swap be handled by the laptop ? Will it keep running flawlessly with the built-in licence or will there be some kind of conflict ? The windows 10 version on each computer are the same (pro).

These give lines that are clearly outside the band plotted above. Maybe I don't understand the meaning of a confidence interval, but if in 95%  of the cases my estimates are within the confidence interval, these seem like a possible outcome? What determines the minimum distance between the upper and lower limit (i.e. close to the point where the two lines added above intercept)?

Antivirus shows nothing, SysInternals autoruns shows no call to cmd.exe or to the batch file.

	Let $G$ be a finite group and suppose there exists $f\in\text{Aut}(G)$ such that $f^2=\text{id}_G$, i.e., $f$ is its own inverse, and such that $f$ has no fixed points other than the identity $e$ of $G$, i.e., $f(x)=x\Rightarrow x=e$. Show that $G$ is necessarily abelian.   While trying to do this exercise I noticed two facts.  First, $g$ and $f(g)$ have the same order because $o(f(g))|o(g)$ and, applying $f$ again and using $f^2=\text{id}_G$, $o(f(f(g)))=o(g)|o(f(g))$ and, once the order of any element is $\geq 1$, it follows that $o(g)=o(f(g))$. Also, it's easy to see that $g$ and $f(g)$ commute.  Second, there cannot exist such an automorphism if the order of $G$ is even, because $f(e)=e$ and we can form pairs like $\{g,f(g)\}$ with $f(g)\neq g$ that are invariant under $f$, i.e., $f(\{g,f(g)\})=\{g,f(g)\}$. But once the order of $G$ is even, proceeding with the construction of the pairs, we'll end up with just one element $\neq e$, so we must have some $\gamma\in G\setminus{e}$ with $f(\gamma)=\gamma$, contradicting the hypothesis.  Let $n$ be the order of $G$ and let's fix an enumeration of the elements of $G$, say $G=\{g_1,\ldots,g_n\}$. My approach was the following. For each $\sigma\in S_n$, let $x_{\sigma}=\prod_{i=1}^ng_{\sigma(i)}$. Then we have that $f(x_{\sigma})=x_{\sigma^{\prime}}$. If it's shown that $f(x_{\sigma})=e\;\forall\;\sigma\in S_n$, then we'd have $x_{\sigma}=e\;\forall\;\sigma\in S_n$, which implies that $G$ is abelian. The problem is that $S_n$ has $n!$ elements while $G$ has $n$ elements, so there repetitions among the $x_{\sigma}$, and we cannot apply directly the reasoning of the last paragraph.  Is this the right way, or is there an easier manner to solve this?

	Suppose that $Tr(A^n) = 0$ for all integer $n>0$.  I have to prove that $A$ is nilpotent.  I can see it's true for little $n$ but i do not know how to prove that for all integer $n$. Any idea please? 
 | 
	$\DeclareMathOperator{\tr}{tr}$Let's consider a $n \times n$ matrix and the sequence of traces $\tr(A)=\tr(A^{2})= \ldots = \tr(A^{n})=0$. How to prove that $A$ is a nilpotent matrix (a matrix so that $A^{k} \times u = 0$ for all $u \in V$ and for some $k$)?  Maybe it would be reasonable to consider $A$'s Jordan form (we assume that the action occurs over an algebraically closed field, such as $\mathbb{C}$). For example, suppose that we have found it and $A'$ consists of $m$ blocks of sizes $r_{1}, \ldots r_{m}$ ($r_{1}+r_{2}+\ldots+r_{m}=m, r_{i} \in \mathbb{Z}_{+}$) with $\alpha_{1}, \ldots \alpha_{m}$ as corresponding eigenvalues to each of the blocks. Then, according to the problem will get the system  $$\begin{align} r_{1}\alpha_{1}+&\ldots+r_{m}\alpha_{m}=0 \\ r_{1}{\alpha_{1}}^{2}+&\ldots+r_{m} {\alpha_{m}} ^{2}=0\\ &\ ~\,\vdots \\ r_{1}{\alpha_{1}}^{n}+&\ldots +r_{m}{\alpha_{m}}^{n}=0  \end{align}$$  But the system's analysis over $\mathbb{C}$ seems to be too much complicated.  Actually, the problem must have more or less simple solution.  Any piece of advice would be much appreciated.

  "Looking for a short story about an artist and a forger Back in the late 1970s to early 1980s, I read a short story about an artist and a forger.  Between the two of them, they managed to start a revolution that brought down a corrupt dictatorship.  It was science fiction:   The dictatorship was interplanetary, maybe interstellar.   The artist used some kind of advanced technology to make his art works.   Plot:  The artist is one of the best (if not the best) at what he does.  The dictator wants the artist to make what amounts to a family portrait in whatever medium it is he works in.  Think of it like painting - you create the image manually (not a photograph) but it is much more than just a flat image.    The artist doesn't like the dictator - maybe on general principles, maybe because he knows the dictator personally - and refuses to make the \"portrait.\"  The dictator has the artist arrested, and will only let the artist free again if he makes the portrait.  The artists makes the portrait.  He does the work while in the prison or jail.  That's where the forger comes into things. The forger is also in jail for something or other.  The forger makes copies of art works.  He of course recognizes the artist, and knows what the artist works with.  The forger can somehow see what the artist is working on.  The artist finishes the portrait.  At first the dictator is thrilled.  It looks exactly the way he wanted it.  As time goes by, though, the people looking at the picture see that it represents the vileness and corruption of the dictator.  The more you look at it, the more of the evilness of the dictator you see in it.  That is the genius of the artist, and whatever medium he is using.  Once you notice the hidden levels of the portrait, you can't unsee them and you see more and more of it as you look.  I think the effect carries over into reality as well.  Once you've seen the dictator's corruption in the portrait you also begin to see it in the dictator and his works as well.  This of course seriously pisses off the dictator, who has the artist killed and the portrait destroyed.  While in prison, the forger watched as the artist created his masterpiece, and recognized it for the subversive thing it is.  He also recognized it as the ultimate rebellion from the artist - the artist knows what will be seen, and that he will be killed for it.  All of that inspires the forger to do something more meaningful with his life than make forgeries for the money.  The forger is released from prison.  He saw the completed portrait, and knows how it was made.  He begins making forgeries of the portrait - like, hundreds if not thousands of them.  These are distrubuted throughout the nation/empire.  The people realize what evil is controlling them once they see it in the copies of the portrait, and eventually a revolution rises and brings down the dictatorship.  It was probably older than the 1970s.  I expect earlier than 1960.  Any ideas?",

	Is an electron completely determined by its mass? What I mean is, could a chunk of matter be "whittled down" or broken off from a larger chunk of matter to the point where it has the mass either exactly of an electron or close to that and in the former case, would it have to be an electron and if somehow the charge of the original piece of matter was neutral or positive would the electron-sized piece suddenly become a negatively charged electron or I guess a positron perhaps. And in the latter case, would the chunk somehow "degenerate" into an electron, shedding the extra mass? I know particles can be created from like laser beams experimentally but it seems like nothing other than know particles are ever created -- never is there just a tiny piece of matter with no characteristics like charge and whatever else electrons/positrons have.

	Fundamental particles identical or just differences very small? I have read that all electrons are identical and I assume the same for protons, etc. That is, all electrons are of the exact same mass and charge.  But do we really know this? Could there be slightly heavier electrons with slightly higher charge or is there a reason why such particles could not exist or would be unstable?

However, it does not highlight which is my favourite tag in that particular question.   My suggestion is to highlight the user's favourite tag for those particular questions.

When a question has tag(s) that match one or more of ours, the background gets highlighted, drawing our attention to the question.  It would also be nice to highlight (perhaps using a bold font) the tags(s) that matched our own, so one could quickly do a further filtering of the question to see if it is of interest at the present time, like the following:    e.g. arduino is in my list of favorites, but the other two in each question are not.

	I would like to know that to determine Fisher information from the Likelihood model, why do we take the log of the likelihood first instead of using normal likelihood ? 
 | 
	I'm trying to understand at a deeper level the ubiquity of log-likelihood (and perhaps more generally log-probability) in statistics and probability theory.  Log-probabilities show up all over the place: we usually work with the log-likelihood for analysis (e.g. for maximization), the Fisher information is defined in terms of the second derivative of the log-likelihood, entropy is an expected log-probability, Kullback-Liebler divergence involves log-probabilities, the expected diviance is an expected log-likelihood, etc.    Now I appreciate the many practical and convenient reasons.  Many common and useful pdfs are from exponential families, which leads to elegantly simplified terms when log-transformed.  Sums are easier to work with than products (esp for differentiating).  Log-probs have a great floating point advantage over straight probs.  Log-transforming a pdf often converts a non-concave function into a concave function.  But what is the theoretical reason/justification/motivation for log-probs?  As an example of my perplexity, consider the Fisher information (FI).  The usual explanation for intuiting the FI is that the second derivative of the log-likelihood tells us how "peaked" the log-likehood is:  a highly peaked log-likelihood means the MLE is well-specified and we are relatively sure of its value, while a nearly flat log-likehood (low curvature) means many different parameter values are nearly as good (in terms of the log-likelihood) as the MLE, so our MLE is more uncertain.   This is all well-and-good, but isn't it more natural to just find the curvature of the likelihood function itself (NOT log-transformed)?  At first glance the emphasis on the log-transform seems arbitrary and wrong.  Surely we are more interested in the curvature of the actual likelihood function.  What was Fisher's motivation for working with the score function and the Hessian of the log-likelihood instead?  Is the answer simply that, in the end, we have nice results from the log-likelihood asymptotically? E.g., Cramer-Rao and normality of the MLE/posterior.  Or is there a deeper reason?

  "These days, the standard way to present differential calculus is by introducing the Cauchy-Weierstrass definition of the limit. One then defines the derivative as a limit, proves results like the Leibniz and chain rules, and uses this machinery to differentiate some simple functions such as polynomials. The purpose of my question is to see what creative alternatives people can describe to this approach. The nature of the question is that there is not going to be a single best answer. I have several methods that I've collected which I'll put in as answers to my own question.  It's not reasonable to expect answers to include an entire introductory textbook treatment of differentiation, nor would anyone want to read answers that were that lengthy. A sketch is fine. Lack of rigor is fine. Well known notation and terminology can be assumed. It would be nice to develop things to the point where one can differentiate a polynomial, since that would help to illustrate how your method works and demonstrate that it's usable. For this purpose, it suffices to prove that if $n>0$ is an integer, the derivative of $x^n$ equals $0$ at $0$ and equals $n$ at $1$; the result at other nonzero values of $x$ follows by scaling. Doing this for $n=2$ is fine if the generalization to $n>2$ is obvious.",

I took a taxi to Bruxelles-Midi train station and bought a ticket to London. A Brussels immigration officer inspected and approved my passport.   Then I had to to through UK Border Immigration. There, they said I can't enter to get my flight. Although I explained the situation with the airline and made clear of my destination (I already reserved my hotels in Venice, Switzerland and France as described in my travel itinerary), they detained me for some hours and also took my fingerprints on paper and photo.   They asked questions concerned about my finances and gave me a refusal letter for not having a transit visa. So I had to re-enter Brussels where the immigration officer put the below stamp in my passport. As I had a single entry Schengen visa, I had to buy another airline ticket to Venice and complete my Europe trip.   What do the stamps below mean on my passport?   Can they affect me and, if so, how and why, when I apply for another Schengen visa?",

	How to get more information about generalized binomial series I am reading about generalized binomial series in Concrete Mathematics by Knuth,and FEW documents exist on the Internet(including wikipedia).What should I do to find more resources?If anyone could help,I would really appreciate it. 
 | 
	Any Info on Generalized Binomial and Exponential Series? I was reading Concrete Mathematics by Knuth et al. and on p. 200, it references the generalized binomial series $\mathcal B_t(z)$ and the generalized exponential series $\mathcal E_t(z)$, defined as $$\mathcal B_t(z)=\sum_{k\ge0}(tk)^{\underline{k-1}}\frac{z^k}{k!}\quad\text{and}\quad\mathcal E_t(z)=\sum_{k\ge0}(tk+1)^{k-1}\frac{z^k}{k!},$$ where $x^{\underline k}$ denotes the falling factorial. I was interested in the generalized binomial series because it satisfied the identity $$\frac{\mathcal B_t(z)^r}{1-t+t\mathcal B_t(z)^{-1}}=\sum_{k\ge0}\binom{tk+r}{k}z^k.$$ I've been trying to find a way to compute the sum $\sum_{n\le k\le m}\binom{tk+r}{k}$, so this seemed related. It seems that $\mathcal E_1(z)$ is also somewhat related to the Lambert $W$ function, though I might be wrong. Searching them up online didn't seem to get anywhere, and I just want to find more sources where I can learn about these functions. If anyone can find some resources, I'd appreciate it!

	If $z$ lies on the circle $|z-1|=1$ then$\frac {z-2} z$ is a purely imaginary number If $z$ lies on the circle $|z-1|=1$ then $\frac {z-2} z$ is a purely imaginary number. This is what by book states. Did'nt understand why. Can someone help?  Actually I was thinking of a more geometrical approach to the problem, as pointed out by @did and the answer below. I also remembered the method that if $\bar z = -z$ then $z$ is purely imaginary. But can it also be done by visual geometry? Ok, I drew a circle centred at $1$ with radius $1$. The statement given implies $\frac {z-2} z$ equals any point on the semicircle. After that how do we prove its imaginary from there?

Also $$|z-1|=1 \implies (z-1)^2=1 \\ \implies  z^2-2z+1=1 \implies z(z-2) =0$$ $\implies z = 0; z =2 $ I think this is wrong.. please suggest thanks..

  "Symbolic coordinates for a hyperbolic grid? Rephrasing     (one year later)    (original question is below)   Apparently the original question wasn't clear, or nobody knows an answer (or both).  So I will try to rephrase it.   Look at your favorite .  This question asks for a labeling system for the points.  Of course we could draw the grid on the Poincare disk, and use real numbers (the (x,y) coordinates of each point), but in practice that would raise all sorts of precision issues that could surely be avoided if one had a proper symbolic coordinate system.  You shouldn't need real numbers if you're staying on grid points!  Just like (2,3)+(0,1) is trivial to do by hand (or in your head) for the square grid, we'd like some form of symbolic coordinates (i.e. consisting of finite sequences of symbols) for a hyperbolic grid, in which simple operations on small grid vectors are similarly easy.  If you take some sequence of left and right turns in a hyperbolic grid city, what should you keep track of in your head so you can take the optimal route back to your starting point?  In a Euclidean square grid, it is {(int)X, (int)Y, (enum)direction you are facing}, and we all know how to use this.  Is there any hyperbolic grid where this question has a nice answer?    Original Question  If we consider the Euclidean plane, then a square grid works well with using two integers (the coordinates) as a representation for vectors that lie on the grid.  Does anybody know of a similarly nice representation for working in the hyperbolic plane?  Desirable features of any such system:  $-$ It should be easy to add two vectors.  $-$ It should be easy to see if two vectors are the same.  $-$ It should be easy to see if two vectors are close.  $-$ It should be easy to rotate a vector by an angle that is a symmetry of the grid.  $-$ Every point in the plane should be near some vector. (The grid shouldn't have large empty regions.)   Note that \"addition\" using continuous coordinates would most naturally be defined in terms of parallel transport, and it is neither commutative nor associative.  On a grid, however, the issue of orientation needs to be addressed differently, since parallel transport along arbitrary grid vectors will introduce rotations that are not a symmetry of the grid, so to remain on the grid, addition will need to be defined using something other than parallel transport.  Since hyperbolic grids have an exponential number of points (as a function of distance from the origin), our symbolic coordinates will need to have a length proportional to the length of the vector.  Don Hatch has a web page which gives some .  (\"Easy\" means an efficient algorithm that is doable by hand, like how the algorithms for addition and subtraction using the standard digit-sequence representation of integers can be used for the Euclidean square grid. Using hyperbolic functions of real numbers, always keeping track of enough digits to identify the nearest grid point, does not count as easy!)    Addendum: Many readers seem to be disturbed by a little voice saying \"But vectors don't make sense in the hyperbolic plane!\": What that voice is really saying is that the hyperbolic plane doesn't give you all the nice properties you are used to in Euclidean space or in vector spaces.  So if you define vectors as objects having specific properties you are used to (such as having a direction that is unaffected by parallel transport), then that definition may not correspond to anything in the hyperbolic world.  You could use the term isometry, but that is typically a fixed mapping from the space to itself, and in the hyperbolic plane the isometry corresponding to a vector would depend on the starting point. (However, isometries will be central to any solution, I assume.) And a geodesic is a fixed path within the space, no different from a hyperbolic line or segment.  The paper  offers one solution.  offer another.  I deliberately leave them undefined in this question, as I am looking for any workable system.",
  "Why didn't mastery of the Elder Wand move on from Harry? There's a lot of emphasis on Harry becoming the master of the Elder Wand after he defeats Draco. But what constitutes a “defeat”?  It seems that Harry wins a wrestling match with Draco, so now he’s the master of the Elder Wand.  But lots of other stuff happens to Harry: Nagini almost kills him, and he escapes just in time, but his wand breaks. The Snatchers chase him through the forest. He and his friends practically surrender (and Hermione even tries to disguise Harry). Voldemort almost kills Harry in the Forbidden Forest (or actually does, depending on how you look at it).  Why are none of these considered to be “defeats”?",

  "Machine Learning - Where is the difference between one-class, binary-class and multinominal-class classification? Where is the difference between one-class, binary-class and multinominal-class classification?  If I like to classify text in lets say four classes and also want the system to be able to tell me that none of these classes matches the unknown/untrained test-data.   Couldn't I just use all the methods that I mentioned above to reach my goal? e.g. I could describe C1, C2, C3 and C4 as four different trainings-sets for binary-classification and use the trained models to label an unknow data-set ...  Just by saying, Training-Set for C1 contains class 1 (all good samples for C1) and class 0 (mix of all C2, C3 and C4 as bad samples for C1).  Is unlabeled-data C1 -> 1 or 0  Is unlabeled-data C2 -> 1 or 0 ... and so on ...  For multinominal classification I could just define a training-set containing all good sample data for C1, C2, C3 and C4 in one training-set and then use the one resulting model for classification ...  But where is the difference between this two methods? (except of that I have to use different algorithms)  And how would I define a training-set for the described problem of categorizing data in those four classes using one-class classfication (is that even possible)?  Excuse me if I'm completely wrong in my thinking. Would appreciate an answer that makes the methodology a little bit clearer to me =)"

  "How does the drift velocity of electrons in a conductor depend on the temperature? How does the drift velocity of electrons in a conductor depend on the temperature?  I have two contradicting views for this.    First, we can say that increasing the temperature of the conductor will increase the kinetic energy of the electrons. Hence, their drift velocity should increase with increase in temperature.  Or, from the relation $v_d = \\frac{eE}{m}T$ ($T$ is the relaxation time) we can say that the drift velocity is directly proportional to the relaxation time. Increasing the temperature will obviously decrease the relaxation time - as collisions will become more frequent - and thus decrease the drift velocity. Hence, an increase in the temperature will cause a decrease in the drift velocity.   So which view is correct?",

If for every orthogonal matrix  $A$   the distribution of $AV$ is the same as the distribution of $V$.   My question: Let $W$ be  i.i.d. zero mean Gaussian random variable.     Can we show that  for a spherically symmetric $V$ the conditional expectation  \\begin{align} E[V|V+W=t]=   g(\\|t\\|).  \\end{align}  That is the conditional expectation is only a function of the magnitude.   My attempt:  \\begin{align} E[V|V+W=t]= \\int  V  \\frac{f_W(t-v)}{f_{V+W}(t)} dP_V(v)= \\frac{\\int  v  f_W(t-v) dP_V(v)}{f_{V+W}(t)}= \\frac{E[ V  f_W(t-V) ]}{f_{V+W}(t)} \\end{align}  Therefore, we can show that the two functions in the above ratio only depend on $\\|t\\|$.

  "How to check file types of uploaded files in PHP? On the PHP website, the only real checking they suggest is using is_uploaded_file() or move_uploaded_file(), . Of course you usually don't want user's uploading any type of file, for a variety of reasons.  Because of this, I have often used some \"strict\" mime type checking. Of course this is very flawed because often mime types are wrong and users can't upload their file. It is also very easy to fake and/or change. And along with all of that, each browser and OS deals with them differently.  Another method is to check the extension, which of course is even easier to change than mime type.  If you only want images, using something like getimagesize() will work.  What about other types of files? PDFs, Word documents or Excel files? Or even text only files?

  "Alright, I think we all agree that what happens with the following code is undefined, depending on what is passed,  void deleteForMe(int* pointer) {      delete[] pointer; }   The pointer could be all sorts of different things, and so performing an unconditional delete[] on it is undefined. However, let's assume that we are indeed passing an array pointer,  int main() {      int* arr = new int[5];      deleteForMe(arr);      return 0; }   My question is, in this case where the pointer is an array, who is it that knows this? I mean, from the language/compiler's point of view, it has no idea whether or not arr is an array pointer versus a pointer to a single int. Heck, it doesn't even know whether arr was dynamically created. Yet, if I do the following instead,  int main() {      int* num = new int(1);      deleteForMe(num);      return 0; }   The OS is smart enough to only delete one int and not go on some type of 'killing spree' by deleting the rest of the memory beyond that point (contrast that with strlen and a non-\\0-terminated string -- it will keep going until it hits 0).  So whose job is it to remember these things? Does the OS keep some type of record in the background?

  "Does it feel lately like all questions have already been asked and answered and there is nothing more to do? I think everybody with a history of participation can't help but notice the explosive growth of repeated duplicate questions. The work of looking for duplicates and then closing questions has overtaken the work of actually answering questions.  It's become virtually impossible to ask something which hasn't been yet asked. Lately I feel boredom each time I see a new question and start answering it only to realize after the first written sentence that I have answered similar questions five times over or seen them answered some ten times or more. I know where it's going to be going and what answers with what votes it is going to receive before any answer is even written.  It's obviously not the administration's fault, it is simply so. The questions is, what to do about it? Engaging more moderators to close and close duplicates won't work because it's already starting to repel users who get mad at their questions closed and become afraid of asking more or perhaps just go away.  The original idea of Jeff stated the the site is for questions that can be answered. Meaning no open-ended discussions. When I first read this I had a casual thought - well, and what's gonna happen when they all are asked and answered? Will it become a museum, a monument of wisdom and knowledge or what?  I'm not sure what to do about it. Perhaps deprecation/versioning of older questions so that their new versions can sparkle the tiresome evening...  POSTSCRIPTUM.  I recall Star Trek Voyager episode  when another Q asked Captain Janeway for asylum. He was tired of immortality and wanted to die. They opened a hearing and went on to visit the continuum to evaluate the living conditions there which caused the suffering and the wish to escape it in death. A lifeless picture presented itself to the visitors... a house lone in an open space, two people going about their business, nobody talking. When asked why they were silent, the following was said. It's been so long, all has already been said, all stories told, all jokes are made... there is nothing left to do...  Are we there as well?  UPDATE: Just saw this answer in another question:       Also, some of the core questions got asked early on in the life of the site. Great questions still come around from time to time, but many have already been asked.   Doesn't that confirm my point?",
  "Is there a difference between Cursor.Current and this.Cursor (where this is a WinForm) in .Net? I've always used this.Cursor and have had very good luck with it but I've recently started using CodeRush and just embedded some code in a \"Wait Cursor\" block and CodeRush used the Cursor.Current property. I've seen on the Internet and at work where other programmers have had some problems with the Cursor.Current property. It just got me to wondering if there is a difference in the two. Thanks in advance.  I did a little test. I have two winforms. I click a button on form1, set the Cursor.Current property to Cursors.WaitCursor and then show form2. The cursor doesn't change on either form. It remains Cursors.Default (pointer) cursor.  If I set this.Cursor to Cursors.WaitCursor in the button click event on form1 and show form2, the wait cursor only shows on form1 and the default cursor is on form2 which is expected. So, I still don't know what Cursor.Current does.",
