I think they were mainly invented for meeting protocols and addressed consultants rather than students. Their, the consultants', obsession for fancy, and otherwise superfluous gadgets has been likely the reason that they were sold at all.WWGD said:
I'm not sure it's superfluous. Not a bad thing to devote your attention fully towards listening rather than go back and forth between listening and writing. And having nice notes to look at, instead of smudged up pencil /pen notes.fresh_42 said:

Maybe they need to rethink packing electric vehicles in enclosed spaces. All it takes is one bad battery, and 'poof'. At least have fire walls and decks. Inert gas (nitrogen, CO2 or otherwise) would be necessary. But then the crew must use pressurized air to avoid asphyxiation.
I remember watching a documentary on TV about the fire on a ferry. It was full of trucks, many with refrigeration systems. However, there were more such trucks than on-board power supplies, so some of them continued to run their diesel-powered refrigeration units. And the injection - I can't remember if it was water or carbonic dioxide - failed because the switches were labeled incorrectly.Astronuc said:
Thank you. Do you know where Android stores it's content? SD card? Flash memory? How to tell what's stored in the phone and what's stored in the provider's server? I mean, no reason you should hsve an idea, but just in case :).Astronuc said:
I thought I saw something about an SD card under the SIM card.WWGD said:

This is a wrong guess for a number of reasons. For one, in Russian you still use the Latin (and Greek) letters for notations. For example you write triangle ##ABC##, not triangle ##АБВ##. Vectors ##\vec{i}, \vec{j}, \vec{k}## not ##\vec{и}, \vec{й}, \vec{к}##.Jonathan Scott said:
I will need some context here, because to me his explanation is obviously wrong!fresh_42 said:
I was not suggesting that the notation would use Russian letters, but rather that since Russian is one of several languages where "i" and "j" are not distinct letters, it would not seem natural to do so.martinbn said:
Looking at L&L, which of course is not just Landau, it does seem that they avoid 'j' as an index with plenty of indices in the second volume. But they use the notation ##j^i## for the 4-current. If you had taken a course with him, this would have made you shoot him yourselfWWGD said:
Well, this is as wrong as ...martinbn said:
... is. Will say, that your statement is as speculative as Jonathan's is. You simply cannot know.martinbn said:
I see, why? I, as a Bulgarian, have always used 'j' along as any other. For example the elements of a matrix for me are most naturally ##a_{ij}##.Jonathan Scott said:
Im referring to using them in a blackboard/whiteboard setting where the letters in the pair tend to be indistinguishable at plain sight. And I forgot the pair (m,n) too. Not so bad in a typeset book, but not a bsd idea to avoid .martinbn said:Looking at L&L, which of course is not just Landau, it does seem that they avoid 'j' as an index with plenty of indices in the second volume.

I don't get it! That's how Russian names work. By the way, Lenin's name is Uljanov (Ульянов).fresh_42 said:
I know. Similar is true for Stalin with the Georgian ending -vili. However, neither for Yelzin nor Putin. But that particular ending in contrast to -ev or -ov is telling if you look at the list.martinbn said:
