Caret ^ signs can be used to describe the power of numbers.    Is $1$^$2$^$3 = 1^{(2^3)}$ or $(1^2)^3$    How do you calculate it? Do you start with $2^3$ and then do $1^8$ or do you start with $1^2$ and then do $1^3$?
Does math have an incorrect notation / syntax? I don't mean writing misaligned notation (google), but when you take something like a number to powers to powers to powers, $${{2^2}^2}^3$$ (I was told this is incorrect notation by a teacher). Is it really incorrect, or does it just need to be simplified with parentheses? Do people write maths like this?  a radical expression with the root being a radical expression? $$\sqrt[\sqrt{2^3}]{2}$$
Today I've suddenly received spam calendar invitation for $19.99 Ray Ban sunglasses (never subscribed, checked, searched or visited any related site, so clearly spam) and it has other visible email accounts within the invitation. I'm wondering if I should be worried whether my accounts been compromised or a simple email from anywhere just plops this in my calendar without review. Questions to be answered:  What should I check/setup in order to make sure my iCloud account is safe? How can I delete this invitation without sending a notification to the sender, so as to prevent them from knowing my email address is live? How can I prevent these notifications in the future?

I am sure this would not have been possible had I remained a typical Anglophone North American.   I have never heard that before and I really find it strange.  I deduce that it means      I am sure this would not have been possible if I kept remaining Anglophone North American.   But I might be wrong in this. PNG figures in black and white I'm trying to include a png figure and it works when I see it in dvi, but the ps comes in black and white.  If I compile directly to pdf there is no problem. However I'm using psTricks for a different figure, so I need to use ps first.  Any suggestions? Multiple Inheritance in java When do you use Java's @Override annotation and why? How can I calculate how long it will take to transfer a file over LAN? I want to know about the method with which we can calculate data transfer speed.   If I am sending a 1 GB file through a 1 Gb/s LAN connection, from one computer to another, how much time will it take to transfer that file? Given a $10×10$ grid with $9$ red blocks and $91$ white blocks, in each step we color one red block black and after that one white block red until there are $91$ black blocks and $9$ red blocks. Prove that there exits a step in which a black block shares an edge with a white block. I ran a few trials and couldn't get past the fifth step without adjacency. But I don't know how to build a proof. Can Ubuntu run on a Microsoft Surface with Windows RT? My family might be buying a Windows Surface tablet with Windows RT (Nvidia)?

How to set programmatically multiple arguments for views contextual filters How to set programmatically multiple arguments for views contextual filters?  I can do it with one argument, it works great, but not with multiple arguments.  I want to select all nodes created by a list of people, but views only takes first in array into consideration:  $array = array(3250,32); $view = views_get_view('myview'); $view-&gt;set_display("myblock"); $view-&gt;set_arguments($array); $view-&gt;pre_execute(); $view-&gt;execute(); $content = $view-&gt;render();    Am I doing something wrong? collapse vs minimize Ellipsis in array initialization in C kernel module How does JavaScript .prototype work? I'm not that into dynamic programming languages but I've written my fair share of JavaScript code. I never really got my head around this prototype-based programming, does any one know how this works? var obj = new Object(); obj.prototype.test = function() { alert('Hello?'); }; var obj2 = new obj(); obj2.test();  I remember a lot discussion I had with people a while back (I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing) but as I understand it, there's no concept of a class. It's just an object, and instances of those objects are clones of the original, right? But what is the exact purpose of this &quot;.prototype&quot; property in JavaScript? How does it relate to instantiating objects? Update: correct way var obj = new Object(); // not a functional object obj.prototype.test = function() { alert('Hello?'); }; // this is wrong!  function MyObject() {} // a first class functional object MyObject.prototype.test = function() { alert('OK'); } // OK  Also these  really helped a lot. Points of a Measure Zero Sets Covered by Intervals Infinitely Many Times Given a measure zero set $E$, by definition we have forall $\varepsilon &gt; 0$, a covering of $E$ by intervals whose lengths sum to $&lt; \varepsilon$.  I want to prove that we can cover $E$ in intervals such that the sum of the lengths the intervals is $&lt; 1$ and each point in $E$ is contained in infinitely many of the intervals.

The title is probably very confusing, but here's the situation:  I'm animating a flat grid curve by shrink-wrapping it onto a moving plane in order to get a uniform wave animation, it looks like this:    Before I render it, i want a bevel. What I did then was simply adding a bevel to the curve, making the curve look like this:    Now, when activating the shrinkwrap modifier, I expexted that only the curve would be shrinkwrapped, but alas, the bevel did the same:    As seen by the blue spots, the curve has been completely flattened along with the bevel.  How can I avoid this? I tried using a wave modifier instead of shrinkwrap, but this modifier doesn't seem to make perfectly round waves like this:    So, any thoughs on how to solve this?
