@JM well, I can't blame you. You are a chemist after all.
(it's after midnight here, my code isn't working, and sometimes I can't resist a little friendly insult. please forgive me, at least until I've had coffee, tomorrow.)
@Verbeia every little bit helps. I've posted a few to r/mathematica, but they have such a low volume of new posts that I don't want to be seen as spamming
I think a lot of the new users are from r/mathematica.
Does anyone know if the FAQ suggests that people wait for a period of time before accepting responses, I read it a couple of times but didn't spot a relevant para?
Indented code does not display properly after a list item. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

i know it is a double map between SU(2) and SO(3) but i have no idea how i would go about proving this or showing this.
can someone point me in the right direction please?
I didn't realize [this question] was the 3rd (4th?) rapid-fire by the same user when I answered. Also, I think it's worthwhile writing down how to use ImageResolution and ImageSize together (I tend to forget it myself..)
@Szabolcs nope, not skeptical enough. I suspect we'll suffer from a semester based cycle of questions as academia is one of the principal locations of mma usage.
That said, maybe reddit has been good for us.
Sometimes I wish the voting wasn't anonymous. I keep getting votes on stuff I haven't touched in a while, and I'm a bit curious as to who voted.
@JM I've noticed. The question of course is are we talking coincidence, a Clark Kent/Superman thing, or a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde situation? I'm voting for the latter. :)
@rcollyer I'm more comfortable with finite differences than with finite elements. I've learned about FEM as an undergraduate but that was years ago and I'm sure things have progressed since then.
@rcollyer mma will get one eventually... gardening had one in december.
I find it ridiculous... first they start 1 site (SO) and then a bunch more. Then hire a few people to do the evals on those sites and then when the number of sites gets too big, they outsource it to the community
@rcollyer Sometimes you have to decide if it's worth your time figuring out how the gears fit together inside your buzzsaw when you happen to have a fair amount of trees to cut...
@yoda ok, i'll give it a shot. we want to plan a vegy garden, and the previous people who lived at our house cultivated all sorts of invasive species...
@EliLansey yeah, sure. Say that you've seen that question and ask if the advice holds for bamboo too, especially given that it grows fast. You might end up pitching a tent otherwise ;)
@rcollyer nope; there are two parts to that: the CompiledFunction object, which contains a LibraryFunction object, and the library itself on disk.
You need to recreate the CompiledFunction in the right form, call LibraryFunctionLoad on the library, then put that result in the right place (last position) of the CompiledFunction. LibraryFunction object doesn't look stateful, but it is--will not work without LibraryFunctionLoad first and substitution of the result for that originally in the CompiledFunction.
@JM I know bad pun. There was a case here in the states where a waitress at Hooter's sued them for giving her a new toy yoda for winning a contest when it was implied that it was going to be a new Toyota. She won the case.
Hmmm ... my kernel hit ~5GB of ram. Well, I guess that calculation is not going to happen any time soon.
@rcollyer According to the section "How it works":
Inside the diffuser tube, there is a metal sphere which is suspended permanently inside. This sphere's movement caused by gravity creates the beam grow effects. There is a magnet hidden in the tip of the blade, which causes the ball to magnetically lock in place. The magnetic lock can be disengaged by bumping the S3 laser with sufficient force.
One of the excellent places to look is the Wolfram Demonstration Project. There are many cases with custom controls there. You can test out controls immediately and download the source code. Because I know that site pretty well I will keep the list here.

I love the custom controls, now if I just had a use for them in general.
@yoda actually the Matlab proposal is still there but the number of followers flatlined a few weeks ago. I've actually upvoted some of the example questions, but philosophically I don't see how Matlab can make the case for a separate site given SO is working for it.
There are so many unthinking proposals for particular programs and frameworks. Most of the languish, but I have made a bit of a name for myself point out to people why ytheir proposal isn't the next AskUbuntu.
@Verbeia Oh, I agree that SO is working, but I found the additional arguments that majority of the questions are on SO and the spread on other sites is small, etc. to be very close to what others said for mma.se... At that point we didn't want to setup a filter across all sites :)
