I've heard these called the German or Russian style integral sign. I don't know the actual history. I have seen this question [1] on the tex/latex stackexchange about making this integral sign. I would expect a journal to not

I think I'm missing a few major points. I wonder if someone here might be able to clarify. 1. The real meat of this "pwning" was (it seems) a google search to identify the WEB API endpoint. Then it turns out that sending POST

There is an interesting thing happening here. It appears the colors on the site are largely either similar to solarized-light or solarized-dark, depending on whether the user's browser has a dark-preference or not. The OP comment evide

I thought this was fascinating. They required final submissions to be exactly a certain resolution.

I give out every paper I've published for free. Well, actually every paper I've published is also available in essentially final form on the arxiv, so I'm not a necessary middleman. But I read a lot of papers from a lot of pe

This is amusing. I see your affiliation through the faq page, but as far as I can tell there is no obvious affiliation displayed on each blog article.

This article is astounding. I really appreciate the many examples. This also furthers my appreciation of the work that goes into some of the games that I've found really responsive or good in ways that I coulnd't express. I think

There is a subsection called matrix multiplication that is about this, and which explicitly mentions the proof of associativity both in the "clear" way and in the "slog through indices" way.

Yes, just slightly. It would take 133 bits. So I suppose a packet would only hold the width of the universe up to an error of maybe the width of 32 hydrogen atoms. Clearly unacceptable. I'm sure this be fixed in IPv7.

If I understand the code correctly, this is is lisp code that ultimately generates a json to be fed to the plotly javascript library [1]. That's sort of interesting. I sometimes work on specialized plotting tools for computational math

The reason this is happening here is because the customization telling mathjax to regard `$...$` as an inline equation occurs immediately after the script tag loading mathjax. Reordering these lines fixes this.

I think the success of such a workflow says a lot of positive things both about drewdevault and git. With respect to git, this is yet another successful workflow conducted through git. While git may have its flaws, one cannot deny that many

I've used two things in the past that have worked very well for me. I used an 11 inch sub 100 dollar chromebook for a couple of years as my mobile workhorse. For true transportability, I've used a tablet (with a terminal emulator

I read this book a couple of weeks ago. I found it gripping and exciting, and read it very rapidly. I recommend it.

I've also thought about that! And I seem to recall being surprised by the answer --- something like 2 trees per year per person roughly balances out on average (assuming the trees are healthy, never die, and grow forever). As a citatio

I was recently thinking about this. Farming is essentially constant repeated removal of extreme amounts of biomass from a land area. We rely heavily on fertilizers for industrial farming. What is the ultimate source of most of the nutrients

I think the key here is that jeIlyfish had malicious code in it, and the fake python3-dateutil imported jeIlyfish. Even if you were examining the source for malicious code, you might not notice the difference between jellyfish and jeIlyfish

From my experience, calculators in classrooms have had a few interesting and odd effects on intuition and expectation. For years, classes were separated and had "theoretical" components without calculator use and "computation

Thank you. I never thought to consider the possibility of making these be separate. Interesting.

I don't usually have an immediate positive reaction to a site, but I immediately liked yours. It's fast and simple. There is no javascript. The recommendations are reasonable. Would you mind describing a bit of your algorithm, or

Yeah, I love IRC. I'm only on freenode now with any frequency, though. Maybe I'm missing out on some other great servers? I'm unsure.
