I was also thinking of maybe doing that Folding@Home stuff.

I wish I could upmod you twice.

I can't believe nobody here has mentioned PDL, the Perl Data Language: http://pdl.perl.org

Admittedly, i think R and PDL do different things... (I have never played with R).

>> Really, really, really real free markets never seem to exist, though.

What, pray tell, do you think the black market is?

Mathematics and chemistry need to be bigger.

Hell, maybe they are and its really the map that is inaccurate...

well. someone doesn't like Perl.

Sheesh!

No, the books he likes seem to require way more intellect than the average book on Oprah's book club.

wow. That was amazing.

its a bit confusing at first, i'll admit.

I think the premise is that alot of people sign up (with usernames they choose) and then give that username out to friends and family so people can see where they are...

A sort of twitter-meets-GPS(?) except not as cool as twitter or GPS. :|

My work "PC" is a Dell Insprion 1501 laptop with a blazingly fast (/sarcasm) AMD sempron 1800 with 256M RAM.

Does everything I need it to. Then again, I run dwm and only terminal apps save for firefox...

THE greatest game ever.

Looking at the Table of Contents it seems fairly decent.

The most helpful Linear Algebra book I have used is Linear Algebra by Friendberg, Insel, and Spence.

Agreed. My first reaction was to post here that this guy is nothing but a script kiddie.

Glad to know someone beat me to the punch.

Was I the only one who read this as "Rules of Lego Design" only to have my excitement crushed into a fine powder?

For all those who are hating on the free-market and greed and selfishness, I advise you to check out Ayn Rand's collection of essays compiled into a book called The Virtue of Selfishness.

The comments are worth reading. Heh.

Wow. I really like this.

This was required reading in my Econ 101 Class.

A must read. However, a caveat: this book, along with Carl Menger's Principles of Economics, will turn you into what some might call a "[Ron] Paulite".

Then again, some see that a term of endearment. ;p

Add me to the list of people who had previously used a deluge of printf()s.

I've always wanted to be a gdb guru but it just seemed a little mystical and unnecessary. But this tutorial seems like it gets to the point so I'll start reading it tonight. Thanks for the link.

isn't hacking a subset of the intellectually stimulating?

There's something moderately worthwhile about being the first person to write a replica of the "Hello, World." program.

But I see nothing remotely worthwhile about being the second, using plans put together by the first.

Another book to read that I recommend to all my friends: An Introduction to Mathematical Reasoning: Numbers, Sets and Functions by Peter J. Eccles.

You can find it on Amazon.
