I use latex + beamer as an electronic lab notebook, and to keep things from getting too long and drawn out I separate things into week by week segments. I can always simply have another latex...

+1 for python shell with the aforementioned aliases. Or better yet, use ipython since it has introspection and other fun things that help you out when using some of the fancier math libraries. I use...
I agree with the general sentiment on Latex. There was one student in my quantum class who took notes with Kile, and at the end of the day had better (and more complete) notes than I did with pen +...
The lab I work at uses torque (clicky) to handle their batch jobs across multiple computers. I don't know if it is overkill for your purposes simply because my experience with it is entirely as an...
xadder++ .... python + matplotlib = win.
I ran into this exact issue (the 65k line limit) once upon a time when my advisor asked me to debug some program I had never worked with before and I...
I know the vim + latex-suite can do that sort of spell check (see attached for image). I like it alot (started my tex life with kile, which is also pretty slick IMO).
EDIT: I don't know about...
Hi,
I'm not sure what kind of analysis, etc. you are doing, but depending on your personal tastes and needs I can speak of 2 ways of getting out of simple ascii columns.
One, which I'm listing...
Honestly, I would be happier if the focus was given to making sure that the latest stable packages of interest were in the repositories, rather than trying to maintain yet another sub-distro. With...
Lucifer's Hammer by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle
My rate of leisure reading has slowed considerably since entering grad school...
It would seem we have a dispute, which I believe to be caused by different interpretations of the question. In the interest of clarity, I attached the method by which I came to my conclusions. You'll...
Close. The mass probably won't actually affect it so much since it will appear on both sides of T = Ia and therefore cancel. The real trick is the moment of inertia's dependence on the radius of the...
For some reason I'm feeling a bit socratic, so maybe I'll just give some hints instead of the straight up answer.
Think about what forces you have on the wheel and their direction. Obviously...
Agree. Kile is neat and all, but I quickly hit the point where all the pretty buttons just got annoying and cluttery to me. The vim latex plugin is actually quite nice IMO. I can see why people use...
Hi,
So I'm creating a presentation regarding some of my work, and am in the process of learning the ropes of Beamer. Now, in my field it is customary to provide citations at the bottom of...
Yes... just be sure to add whatever modifications you want to the correct .rc file :P . As far as I know, it functions completely the same, except perhaps you won't get the menu tools you do when you...
The two places I have found most useful to start learning linux have to be this guide from here and the IBM guide. The latter you have to register for (it's still free though) and is more technical,...
My understanding (though I'll admit that I am not a high-energy guy) is that the answer to that depends on the mass of the Higgs, which isn't exactly known with any certainty needless to say. Also,...
I use (g)vim + latex-suite and it has such a feature. It's pretty nifty if you like vim.
Not particularly. The short story is that I'm a grad student who recently had the sudden need to create some figures, so I just went through the repository looking for something to do it. Skencil was...
I am also having issues getting it to work on an Xubuntu 8.10 install... I installed it via synaptic and get the following when I attempt to run it:
I'm not much of an expert, but it seems...
That is a good point. When I actually start looking at migrating things, I'll check out what differences there are and see if I can narrow down what's causing the issue. If I can isolate something,...
I figured I would post the final chapter on this little story :)
So I booted from a new 8.04 live cd, and magically it recognized things properly (magically since the computer was running 8.04...
All righty, so I managed to test with a couple live CDs I had lying around. Xrandr was able to read the proper screen resolutions for a projector with both 8.04 Xubuntu 64-bit and 7.10 Ubuntu 32-bit...
