| 121436 | People have complained in the past about a catalog-centric way of viewing boards on /qa/, but is it really that bad of a thing for some people to have it as their default view? As a primary benefit, I'd say that browsing from the catalog tends to increase the use of threads past the first page and keeps new eyes on threads.

| 133264 | [s glowpink]"They"[/s] don't want you to divide vectors by vectors, but it's one of the easiest to understand operations you can define. We'd like a scalar q that makes q[b]B[/b] = [b]A[/b], but that's not always possible, so pick the value of q that gets as close as possible, minimizing the size of the remainder [b]R[/b] = [b]A[/b] - q[b]B[/b]. This happens when q[b]B[/b] is the component of [b]A[/b] parallel to [b]B[/b], and [b]R[/b] is the component of [b]A[/b] perpendicular to [b]B[/b]. We'l | [View] |
