I don’t know. I feel like I should know but I don’t. It seems like other people know, I don’t know why I don’t.

  • I just checked and every single textbook I own that contains a reference to this transformation uses an image of a sheep. Sadly all of my textbooks are in English. If I had any relevant texts in German or Spanish I doubt that they would makes this connection.

    On an less relevant note one of the books introduces the idea of change of basis with a joke about labeling axes and has several different types of ax with corresponding labels attached and I find that to be a much worse joke.





  • I have a gaming PC I use a lot and I have a Microsoft Surface Pro. I take my Surface everywhere and use it for everything when I am not at home. I also have an office and at the office I use a dock for my Surface. I use my phone when the job is small enough that I expect to be able to do that work in less time that it would take me to get out my Surface.

    I take a lot of notes with the surface, even when working at my desk. I can draw a lot of the problems at work better than I can describe them with words and since getting the surface I have hardly touched my waycom. Being able to see my drawings on the surface while I draw is super useful.










  • The 1990’s DRM game. A point and click mystery game where you have to find the DRM codes printed on the back of the disk, hidden in the CD-ROM jewel case, or the specific word on the printed in the manual to unlock mini games. You might even consider scanned JPEGs of each page of the manual in the file system of the copied CD-ROM that your friend made you.



  • This idea is so poorly conceived. Imagine installing and maintaining something like this. How are those panels supposed to stay clean?The panels and the cover should both be built but they should not be the same thing. No current panels are engineered for this application so they would have to be custom made. Just getting the project to the point where the first panel could be installed would cost millions. We could get started now installing commercially available shade covers and ground mounted solar. Ground mounted solar is simple to clean, simple to maintain, and simple to replace.

    I agree the idea looks like a great way to reclaim the space, reduce evaporation, and generate power I just think the money would be better spent on a plan the optimized for expenses and longevity instead of optimizing for novelty.
