   Particulary in starting calculus, after laying out the foundation of real numbers, exercises pretty soon start with determing limits, inflexion points, trends, and all. Sure, play with those at first by hand, but try to plot and play with t

   Well, suggested solution of this problem seems kinda backwards to me. I'd much prefer something along the lines of what Stephen Wolfram suggests - offload computation to computers in the first pre-rigorous stage, which may enable building o

   Well, if you had submitted it, I'm sure it would get frontpaged here. I just really wasn't aware of the revert and the git commit message sounded promising. [1] [1] http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=tasksel/tasksel.git;a=co...

   All this bodes well for Xfce, which is already an outstanding effort. Nice to see it included in future releases of Debian as default, for some spotlight.

   You can work just fine with out of the box experience, there's even customization wizard now.

    Though I agree with you on the assessment of the practical results of the judgment, I think that court ruling "damages" in such a way is far from perverse, and actually proper way of dealing with corporate entities. Everyone needs to be rem

    If this is added newly, I can't believe they're still trying to pull judge by the nose. This is bordering pure effrontery, beyond any common sense damage control.

    I've been using http://www.foobar2000.org/ for almost 10 years now. Though most of my music now is in the cloud, I always keep a heavily modded version of fb2k on my PC. This is BY FAR the best audio player available. I had some respect f

    Just pitching in to confirm this. Though not from personal experience, my acquaintances working at the respective companies have assured me that out of Big Three, MS is most heavily invested in research, in spite of the corporate politics.

    I personally have troubles with either iOS or Android around small width characters in variable width fonts (like ',il.;:). Fixed width font would help me greatly around those.

    It still isn't precise enough (well, not unless you're selecting monospace font type), and even ignoring that, it's a level of abstraction extra, because you don't just click and get where you want in just one step.

    For almost 4 years I've had and still do as my primary computer a Tablet PC (HP 2730p), no touch, but with stylus. I still use it and will probably use it in every aspect of it until it dies on me. Touch is maybe cool and natural and whatno

    It doesn't. I'm just refuting the argument that if iPads can do it, laptops can too. Those are two wildly different architectures that are only beggining to converge, touch interface and resolution being prime candidates for feature converg

    It is ridiculous in a sense that basically only the latest Intel's IGPs can run it acceptably. There's a whole plethora of quality ranges laptops provide for various purposes, it would be incredibly silly making such an incredulous resoluti

    For all manufacturers, this would reduce time of autonomy, and for many, significantly so. And obviously, price range. It's a trade-off between various things, as usual. What Linus thinks may work for him (I happen to agree), but I can easi

    Haha. First you have numerous "how I hacked YC application" submissions when there wasn't absolutely any hacking going on there. And now you have responses how you someone doesn't want to hack it. There's no any kind of hacking going on the

    I'd package them like Matryoshka dolls, to explicitly force ordering, since it seems it is relevant in messages.
