Thanks, idiot.

The advice to go 64-bit and throw RAM at the problem brings back memories of my computational math class.

I realize you say this jokingly, but seeing that at this there are almost as many others as female (14 v 16) I'm curious how they define it. If I had to guess it would be mostly ma…

Here's some quick thoughts: if this is going to be used for short stories (fiction/non-fiction, but not blog posts) you could monetize by letting readers build an anthology and pri…

Ah, I get where you're coming from now. Interesting to think how that would work.

The Second Amendment isn't really about self -defense: A well regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall…

My old boss was born and raised in France and would use that expression all the time. She thought it was funny.

I kind of agree. I prefer the middle ground of notepad++ (with plugins for code completion and ftp/file explorer). Light and powerful while still resembling something designed for …

Math related search is generally not good. You can find theorems and definitions but proofs (non-famous ones) exercises are difficult to find.

Have you tried getting mentioned on travel blogs? Try looking specifically at the ones targeting backpackers.

Florida either, but the humidity is even worse!

There's a difference between sacrificing another and sacrificing yourself.

I don't see why not. I learned the math part of that (and more) in one year of grad school and basic C++ instead of the two languages. Just takes dedication if you're doing it on y…

I agree there should be a cost for posting stories, even going so far as preventing further submissions if you fall below a certain threshold. You could raise your karma back up th…

I've always interpreted that phrase to mean "they're not doing this for free, you know" because of the tone in which it's usually said.

To add on to this, every search engine is generally pretty bad at math related searches. It may be something worth looking into.

While I don't think it's the case, I do think it would be a brilliant strategy. The NYT article on the Iran negotiations seems rather helpful to the US, but nothing that could ever…

It definitely takes longer for calls to connect and I think it may drop calls more frequently when using it on a cell (although it has improved greatly in that regard from about a …

There is no voice lag in GV that I've noticed, I think it works more like call-forwarding than voip.

Walden by Henry David Thoreau. It's public domain, so you can get it free. I challenge anyone here to read the first page and not immediately want to read the whole thing.

Sorry about the weird formatting, it looks fine when I paste in the comment box. You'll need to add line breaks after the comments to get it working.

In his honor, here is Matlab code to generate a Mandlebrot set (from an old homework assignment): function inValues= mndl(limits) %no inputs needed, used by the script to zoom in %…

Haven't advertised yet, but if you go to http://minvp.com/apps you'll find everything I send out in the email.

OK, I felt compelled to check some of the source. Aside from references to tripod.com and every js library out there, here's what I saw where there were credits: Auction: Professio…
