I've always thought the best explanation was 7^2=7 * 7=49 7^2/7^2=7 * 7/ 7 * 7=49/49=7^(2-2)=7^0=1 But 0^0 was never intuitive to me.

If I may, here are my productivity tips: - find/build a good todo system using GTD (Getting Things Done) methods (capture, organize, review) - use it to capture all your thoughts and things you have to do. Get it out of your head. - make we

I think the OP meant "creative" as seeing a shortcut e.g instead of spending 10 hours trying to solve a problem, a "creative" person could do it in two using a different approach. In this case, persistence is inefficient. You can see it hap

Short version: I'm in the same boat. I have a lot of experience in PHP (personal + professional) projects. I invested my time in learning frameworks (Symfony, Doctrine + Propel) and have tons of plugins and utilities classes. Feel free to

I'm guessing those rates only apply for south-east asia and south america and maybe some rural locations in Europe or eastern europe. Out of curiosity, are you writing software or managing programmers remotely? I tried traveling and workin

One last thing you forgot to mention. zsh is rarely installed on remote hosts. bash is everywhere. This is a game changer in my case where I can simply download my configuration, load it in the current session and start using all my scripts

I know the feeling and one thing that really helped me is doing things related to a higher goal/purpose. I'm not talking about some spiritual stuff or convincing yourself with bullshit. Just something to aspire to, something you respect and

It's good but it could be better. e.g: - stack overflow running on top of that to rate comments + index questions asked on functions - smart snippet indexer. Examples rarely cover everything - smart way to deal with changes over multiple re

It needs a bit more work (if you compare it to vimperator on firefox). Especially some essential things like cursor mode, visual mode, bookmarks and keymarks Take a look at my fork (and others) for more stuff. http://github.com/hbt/vimium

Thanks for replying. I didn't know about OpenViBE. In your opinion, how is it compared to emotiv SDK? (I'm referring to the API, quality and things you can do with it -- with minimal coding)

This looks perfect for research or OS programs. But you can forget commercial applications without the consent of emotiv. Also, perhaps someone can clarify this for me. This doesn't guarantee you will end up with something better or similar

Loners are not necessarily lonely people. Perhaps it was only my impression reading the article, but in some sections, the author tends to confuse "loneliness" and "solitude". True loners are people "suffering" from schizoid personality dis

I didn't mean any disrespect. Although I'm not in a position to give away large sums of money, I don't believe in _just_ investing in people. Investing in their economy, industry etc. makes more sense in the long term than investing in food

Interesting point. Is money better spent feeding/clothing a bunch of Africans and preventing aids _or_ on research, bio-engineering, space/ocean exploration, education etc. here at home? Which one is short term and which one is long term?
