It is likely that this problem can be fixed by changing (by a lot) your monitor gamma. Text anti-aliasing is typically performed on linear brightness space, then adapted to the typical gamma of a monitor for black on white text. Many font

I don't think that a bell is correctly modelled as a shell of variable thickness. The inner surface is smooth, and the outer surface has ridges . These ridges are apparently important to the timbre, thus it may be more appropriate t

Of course, but this notorious bombing must be mentioned as well, with a link to its main article. Just like the article on the B-29 superfortress [0] mentions and links to the article about the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki [1]. [0] ht

Why? It seems appropriate content. The F-117 is, by construction and design, a machine for killing people. It is natural to showcase its most "successful" mission.

As if there was just material for a single PhD thesis! I would guess that the mathematical theory of bells is pretty much open. The shape of a bell (a solid of revolution) can be described by one function u:R->R. Given u, you can com

What is your point? Even if it is a rare occurrence, from time to time you might want to output an html table using "print", and it will be slightly more comfortable that way. I sometimes find myself editing html by hand. Thank

Because it's unnecessary in html5, just like closing li, td, tr tags. When you use implicit tags (body, header, etc) and auto-closing tags (li, p, tr, td,...) then html becomes refreshingly lean and human-editable. EDIT: for a nice s

Here in france you can find them in many supermarkets for about 2 EUR. The plain and dotpad versions tend to be rarer and more expensive.

Rhodia and Clairefontaine are cheap (the notebooks with simple covers) and they are the best for fountain pen writing without feathering. Only surpassed by expensive japanese paper.

I love this, in an "alternate history" kind of way. Interesting and fascinating. It is, however, sad that the author apparently takes it seriously! Moreso that he is a really good mathematician and writer. His book with Dubrovi

The issue is the problematic usage of the word "legacy" by the author. It is disparaging, almost like trolling. Being "legacy" or not has nothing to do with the number of users. There are many cutting-edge distribution
