I agree that a firm understanding of maths is vital for an understanding of electronics. The way that it is presented though looks to me as though the course would be best presented in a classroom environment. It is perfectly possible to present the maths and the practical aspects side-by-side; dumping Large Asymptotic Approximations on the unsuspecting student as chapter 1, part 1 is not the way to do it for a lot of people.
Quite. Any electronics course that starts with Chapter 1: Algebraic Approximations, the first section of which is entitled Large Asymptotic Approximation, strikes me as being more theoretical than practical and certainly not for beginners.
"By the age of 25, this addiction is cemented in the brain and it becomes very difficult -- almost impossible -- to quit," State Rep. Greg Smith, R-Heppner, told KGW.
Absolute rubbish. Plenty of people, myself included, have managed to stop smoking after the age of 25. Is being an idiot now a pre-requisite for election to high office in the US?
Because if you sell a lot of items on a number of different platforms it makes more sense to upload the images once and then link to them from the various platforms.
...because this summary makes almost no sense without them. Someone makes a commentary track for a film and then makes another 13 years later and that's sticking it to the Copyright Man, is that it?...mmkay...
An appeal to Slashdot eds: this is the second story in a few days in which the headline simply refers to 'the app store', as though there is only one app store in the world. Reading further in both cases indicates that it is the Apple app store that is being referred to. As there are some (many?) of us who don't use and are not interested in Apple products, would it be unreasonable to ask that you identify precisely which app store is being referenced in the story?
There might be tons of CCTV cameras but they are not all operational. In my town, the police recently called for unpaid volunteers to watch the camera feeds on weekend nights because they can't afford to pay people to do it.

Avoid HP products.
One of the longest summaries I've ever read on here and I'm still not clear what it does.
And once again, the Tories fail to get that the Internet does in fact extend beyond the borders of the United Kingdom.
In other words, good luck with getting XHamster to implement an age check.

Most British programs change the stars every few episodes.
I take it that Coronation Street and Eastenders mean nothing to you?

...since Pol Trump and the NRA Rouge will be rounding up the intellectuals and putting them in concentration camps before long.
Not exactly Continuum, is it?

Most people who I've seen get blocked by The Fat Trumper are really proud of the fact. I would be.
I often recall this piece of sagely advice from guitarist Robert Fripp, talking to author Tony Bacon:
TB: What advice would you give a young musician?
RF: Never fly Air Iberia.
TB: No, seriously.
RF: Seriously. Never ever fly Air Iberia.
You were flying it wrong.
Ah yes, alas, being British, that wouldn't have occurred to me.
Surely it's from the more-money-than-sense-dept?
I've seen games that needed a 50GB update before they would run. That was the point I was trying to make.
...but my monthly internet allowance is only 750GB.
There might be tons of CCTV cameras but they are not all operational. In my town, the police recently called for unpaid volunteers to watch the camera feeds on weekend nights because they can't afford to pay people to do it.
I can't decide if that's laughable or sinister.
I remember reading about towing icebergs as a potential solution to water shortages when I was a kid, probably mid-to-late 1970s.
I wonder why the water shortage is expected to last 25 years? What is going to happen in 25 years to ameliorate this problem?
Whilst I agree that 'troll' is not synonymous with 'I disagree', your comment is sufficiently fact-free that were it possible, I'd mark it 'troll.'
Yes, but you presumably hated Windows back when updates were optional, so it's not a particularly persuasive example to choose.
Oh yes, what a shame. Never mind, I don't have much love for Oxfordshire either.
