When fridays_135 is called, a list of dates between the start date and end date is produces by date_range. That list is then narrowed down to just the Friday dates and then grouped by month by fridays_by_month. Finally, fridays_135 loops through those groups of months, extracts the 0th, 2nd, and ...

The Mining World designation improves mining and "Strategic Resource Gatherers". I assume this means that the miners of a strategic resource get a bonus amount of that resource. What I'm not clear on is: Does a mining world designation improve artificial conversion of minerals into strategic re...

If I remember correctly, best practice on a drawing is if you fully dimension a part in two out of three orthographic views you don’t include a third view with no dimensions.

I saw this character in a Batman comic in either late 80's/early 90's.

In Hans Oerberg's book Familia Romana you can find this sentence: īnfrā pulmōnēs est iecur et venter (Ch. XI; lines 20-21) - shouldn't it say "sunt iecur et venter". We have two subjects in the sentence so why is there the verb in singular?

I want to find a way how to automatically change "l" into "\ell" in a math mode. I tried to do it using \catcode, but it's quite difficult for me. I want it to change "l" only when it appears alone.

One of the uses of the verb dar in Portuguese seems to be "to find" as per the definition in Priberam: Dar [...] 28. Achar, descobrir, encontrar (ex.: deu com a fotografia escondida no livro). However, I've found some people online suggest that using it this way sounds like broken Portuguese ou...

How is SVM optimization implemented in packages like Scikit-Learn? Clearly, SVM is a quadratic programming problem but why not just use gradient descent to update the parameters?

Sometimes, I see this called the Dirac Hamiltonian: $$\hat{H} =\vec{\mathbf{\alpha}}\cdot\hat{\vec{p}} + \mathbf{\beta}m ;$$ but, if we take the Dirac Lagrangian density, obtain the corresponding Hamiltonian density via Legendre transforming and integrate, we get --- if I'm not mistaken --- $$\ha...

If I remove the plate of a wall outlet, and touch the hot screw, I’ll get a shock. The potential difference with the ground is enough to send some current into my hand.
