I don't think it's meant to play chess, it's just to show chess positions (see the example page: http://chessboardjs.com/examples ). It is in a similar vein to this: http://andrewphoy.github.io&#x2F

I agree that an off-by-one error is not a huge deal in most cases, but cryptography is one of those places where you cannot get it wrong . The programmers, or a employee well-versed in cryptography, should have ran a Chi-Squared test imm

a) That solution is sometimes implanted. The problem is: its slow, very, very, slow. It is not nearly as fast as regular integer arithmetic. (Also, +, -, /, and * aren't called axioms.) Also, how do you handle things such as powers and expo

Assuming the digits of pi are randomly distributed, any finite digit sequence can be found in pi. The probability any sequence of length d is found in N digits of pi is 1 - 1/exp(N*0.1^d) (Poisson distribution for approximating the binomial

I hope that ICANN accepts a small amount of these. Isn't this the point of subdomains? Why can't ABC just use foo.abc.com (or foo.abc.go.com) instead of foo.abc? The new TLDs are confusing and I'm sure many people will just type in .com as

I think the entire statement is silly in that it attempts to compare two entirely different branches of mathematics, it would be almost as arguing between physics and biology. Physics is the study of matter and energy. Biology is the study

There certainly is a mechanism [0], however it doesn't actually completely remove the commit from the remote GitHub repo, as people with the direct link can still access it. I'll check to see if I can find removed commits using this. [0] h

I'd say no; the mean poverty fraction is 30.91%, with median 28.25% and standard deviation 19.05%. [0] Afghanistan has a poverty rate of 36% (as of 2008). [1] So it's definitely above the average. [0] http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=p
