I've always liked sad music. But I have to say that I don't associate such music with sadness. Rather more with overcoming things? I am not sure. When I compose music I focus a lot on half intervals, especially things like major 7

So yes, this is equivalent to FinVect of the field of which entries in the matrices consist. The difference is that here you construct the category from a simpler premise. To construct FinVect you need to include all set objects with struct

It tries to do html, but it is limited. So I'd rather use Javascript to manipulate the frontend directly. It tries to do functional programming, but the documentation is not satisfying. The responses and behaviour is perplexing. I spen

I use both python and R almost every day. Although I like R and often use R to quickly order tabulated data, there are a few things to take into account that in recent times are building a strong case for me not to use R habitually. Devel

I know this is true at least from a mathematical point of view. The common knowledge case is the conic sections that were discovered during this time. But like the library of Alexandria, our historical knowledge has the infortunate property

Again, why is this being downvoted? Sexism should be highlighted. Many of the comments here are trying to rationalise injustice.

I think the point of the article is that taking away someone's identity because she happens to be a woman is something that she has the right to oppose, especially if she is that woman. Also, they were dishonest. Personally, I would

One thing that I hope is a priority for "fixing" would be interaction with libraries. In 3rd year/Honours I had to code in Perl and I remember abandoning using some of them.

I use Perl at least once a week for regex. Occasionally I use it for extracting web pages or splitting columns or something like that. For my purposes, Perl 6 vs prior Perl does not influence functionality. If you write more complex program
