It's better for me (and society at large) if most people do just settle and be happy with what they have. It's better for me if I always want something more. It's better for society if certain people aspire to be great in that for which they have passion. Imagine if Steve Jobbs and The Woz...
Any study of modern physics inevitably brings one to the Heisenburg Uncertainty Principle, and usually to the Schroedinger's Cat paradox. Pop articles on the subject usually give such a cursory and dumbed-down overview that the reader really doesn't gain a good understanding of the topics.

Thanks!
The solution to the second is so simple, I almost can't believe I didn't come up with it. I guess that shows what happens when you haven't had a math class in a few years.
By analytic solution, I mean an equation solved for t, instead of a numerical method.
Is there an analytic solution to an equation of the following form?
A*cos(w*t) + B*t = C
where A, B, C, and w are constants
Maybe it can be solved by expanding the cos() to a series?
I am also wondering the same question about the following, though I believe that I've read/been told...
The non-greedy aspect of this line of thought is correct; however it comes from recognizing the personhood, not the emptiness, of others. Personhood gives rise to ethics the first place. It is by recognizing that others have personhood akin to one's own, and giving others' interests proper...
It turns out that you need to overload the new and delete operators using aligned malloc and free functions.
Check out this PDF for more info:

Has anyone else experience the new operator not working correctly for 16-byte aligned data types? I am using Visual Studio .NET 2003.
I have a class that has its first component 16 byte-aligned via the "__declspec(align(16))" directive because I am using SSE.
class Vector {

Thanks, guys. I'm using opengl and openal for the graphivs and sound, but it looks like I can use e SDL for just about everything else (assuming that the timer has a good-enough resolution).
That is correct, I got errors when I tried it without putting it in a register first.
I read something somewhere that you could use the address of your C/C++ variable in the assembly by putting an underscore before the C/C++ variable name, but this doesn't work in VS.NET (It tells me that...
I'm writing a program in C++ in MS Visual Studio.NET, and I am using inline assembly to do some SSE instructions.
The trouble is that I am having a hard time getting the assembly to accep the addresses from my C++ from anyting other than explicitly-declared pointers (not even arrays work!). I...
The only good way to gather user input in games and other real-time applications in Windows that I know if is to use Direct X. I really hate using OS-specific APIs and libraries. Is there any sort of platform-independent input library out there that does a decent job of giving the programmer...
OK, I have a few more questions. This thread is becoming part programming, part linear & matrix algebra.
A) The only method that I can remember for finding the inverse of a matrix by reducing the matrix to the identity (row or column echelon) and applying the same row or coumn...
