Android Tips/Tricks and Tutorials. Android is full of 32-bit tools and dependencies. Running on x64 can be problematic unless you install ia32-libs. Unfortunately, Ubuntu has been having issues installing it lately. After 2 days, I finally found the solution here. Sudo dpkg - add-architecture i386 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install ia32-libs. After that, everything installs fine. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Awesome Inc. template.

Science, Cigarettes, and Cynicism. Saturday, October 10, 2009. The (half) Truth Shall Make Ye Fret! And so, my darling larvae, we return once more to contemplating the true nature of clove cigarettes, which go also by the kenning of 'kreteks.' What I am to impart to you is both boon and burden. For, if you will allow me to take a quick detour into philosophical fancy, isn't all knowledge a boon, really? Alright, I'm through fucking with you now, let's get down to Serious Business.

Android Tips/Tricks and Tutorials. NVidia video tearing in my IDE. I have been having some problems for the last few months where the menu items in my IDEs (plural) were tearing. Sometimes they wouldn't popup, sometimes more than one would be highlighted, etc. I found this article. From 2 years ago which I couldn't really follow to the letter. My nv only had one of the specified settings. I don't have ccsm installed, etc. The ONLY change I made was:. Sudo su - root. So far it seems to be working fine.

Math Research, Tips and Tricks. One of my pet peeves is that we routinely teach kids that things are impossible, unknowable, too complicated, et cetera. Another is when our equations are dirtied with exceptions to rules. One example of this was my implementation of pi. That in turn was based on a modification of the continued fraction library. To be a bit cleaner in the implementation. It bugged me that my implementation of pi. Started with an exception. My numerator at index=0 was 2. What does this mean?

Math Research, Tips and Tricks: Division by Zero
http://malsmath.blogspot.com/2009/04/division-by-zero.html
Math Research, Tips and Tricks. I've been on this kick lately where I have started question some of the basic assumptions I learned in math. things like "you can't easily define pi" or the concept of an "irrational number". Today's philosophical debate is on the idea of division by zero. Now, if there are 5 people, everyone gets 2 pennies. Simple. If there are 3 people, everyone gets 3 pennies and 1 is left on the table. If there are no people, then there is still 10 pennies on the table. So, in essence:.

Math Research, Tips and Tricks: Primality of 1
http://malsmath.blogspot.com/2009/05/primality-of-1.html
Math Research, Tips and Tricks. When I was in school, I remember them teaching that a prime number was any number divisible by only 1 and itself. Thus, in school, they taught that 1 was prime. Since then, I have noticed that everyone insists that 1 is not prime. Since many of the patterns I find work better with 1 being prime, I decided to try to figure out why the discrepancy. And Zeisel. Derrick Norman Lehmer. S list of primes up to 10,006,721, reprinted as late as 1956,. As stated, is valid, i.e.

Math Research, Tips and Tricks. A224502: Prime numbers (together with one) whose representation in balanced ternary are palindromes. Quite often when I am doing prime number research and/or looking for patterns, I check the various number sequences against OEIS. To see what other algorithms would come up with the same sequence. Usually, every sequence I look for is in there. For example:. And, now that I have published my first sequence to OEIS. For n=5, a(5)=61 and in balanced ternary notation is 1ī1ī1.

Math Research, Tips and Tricks. Pick a random number a. This may be done using the Euclidean algorithm. 8800; 1, then there is a nontrivial factor of N. So we are done. Otherwise, use the period-finding subroutine (below) to find r. Of the following function:. Ie the smallest integer r. Is odd, go back to step 1. 8801; -1 (mod N. Go back to step 1. The factors of N.
