How do you install Firefox via F-droid? (I searched, but don't see it listed in my F-droid store directly.) Do you use the FFupdater app?

From a habit-forming perspective, my household has had a lot of success with gummy multi-vitamins, because they're fun and tasty to take. In the US, drug stores always seem to have a selection of these.

Can you convert Latex to Word (or ODT, etc.), perhaps with Pandoc, and then from that to epub (e.g. Google Docs allows you to download a Doc as an epub)? Book looks interesting, btw!

There's a Youtube playlist[1] of recorded lecture videos by Wasserman from his CMU course that uses All of Statistics as a textbook. I haven't watched more than a couple of mins of them (yet), so no idea how good they are (but the

They are in order, and Bond evolves based on his experiences in previous books. I would start with the first, Casino Royale and go from there. Bond of the novels is a more complex and less hero-worshipable character than his movie equivalen

I've resisted Twitter for a long time, but this would be the only reason I could see myself becoming a user. In the past I've had a hard time finding people to follow with a high enough signal to noise ratio (or who don't flo

I would second the Coursera course(s), which is one of the best MOOCs I've ever taken (Algorithms 1 & 2 from Princeton). Watch the videos, then read the relevant section of the text book, and don't miss the assignments which w

Googling for "Best Business Books of 2009", I'm struck by how few of them I would bother reading today. I remember Shop Class as Soulcraft fondly, although it was a bit of a slog at times, and Brightsided is still on my Goodr
