Android apps are written in java, iOs apps are written in Objective-C. Wiki them for more info

Thanks for all answers, you pointed me in the right direction, but I still have doubts. (Note that I study IT Engineering, not biology) There is a public project, Folding@home, which uses Molecular Dynamics to simulate small proteins for short amounts of time and already does that since about...

What would be a rough estimate of the computational complexity to simulate an embryo in a full-atom scale from the instant of conception to the death of the aging adult? Its a purely theoretical question and I know that its something like daydreaming for the current technology, but I would...

Well, this is the exact thing I asked myself when I was enrolled in Physics. I actually went there from IT Engineering because I wanted to be among less 'mainstream' people. I was actually disappointed, because yes, I've met some nice people, but in fact they still weren't 'nerd' in my...

oh ok, so don't use AdBlock at all if you love PF :D

I experience the same thing when the problem occurs, its like tag.contextweb.com is the weak ring of the chain. I http://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=fs&q=tag.contextweb.com&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8" tag.contextweb.com and found that PF is certainly not the only server having problems...

PF is working fine, 11:30 GMT

the problem seem to be disappeared by now, thank you

I am trying to connect from Italy, Reggio Calabria, from an ADSL2+. I can open PF readily, but the page loads only from the title to the 'My Physics forum' bar: everything under this bar is gray, and my status bar says: "Connecting to tag.contextweb.com" Opening the forum sections, the user...

I've been studying Calculus I in the last few months (I still struggle because I didn't give it the needed effort) and I think I can understand what Femme Physics is trying to say. Personally, when I encounter a proof I am sometimes tempted to just skip it for two reasons: - Most of the...

Definitely agree with that.

Lets suppose I am the best mathematician in the world. Ok, then? You can have nice talks and nice challenges with virtually every mathematician you talk with. There is always something to learn about: the genius who know most is the person who assume he might incidentally learn something from...

F.I.A.T. (our national historical car-producing enterprise) is outsourcing to Serbia and they closed a lot of italian factories, leaving thousands of workers unemployed. Same thing occurred when Alitalia, our national air transportation company, almost failed (it did, when it was a public...

for you all who supposed that Italy was a good place to do research: http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,2024136,00.html many of you abroad probably don't know, but in italy we are starting the accademic year with 3 weeks of delay because of university researchers and students on...

I am already in PF as you can see, and already enjoying it :D By the way, no: I am not talking about Online Communities such forums, blogs, sites. I am talking about something like Facebook or Windows Live Spaces. I heard about ResearchGate, but there are many many others. The problem with...
