Move the search function tool

I've been a junkie for a long time and a forum user for a fair length of time. I didn't even know we *had* a search tool until JP (Thank You, JP) pointed it out to me. I saw in another post (Andrews) that Scott asked why people weren't using it:

http://www.scottsigler.com/node/1606#comment-21571

Others seemed to reply they didn't know we had it either. I'd suggest you move it to the upper left somewhere. That's where most sites put it if they have one. I know that's where I go to look for one. Definitely don't bury it in the lower right hand corner. It's very counter intuitive to look down there.

Treed! Another math(ish) quote:

JP's picture
"Amid the action and reaction of so dense a swarm of humanity, every possible combination of events may be expected to take place, and many a little problem will be presented which may be striking and bizarre..." -Sherlock Holmes (from "The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle") This kind of reminds me of the premise behind Isaac Asimov's Foundation Trilogy.

human interaction with such a wide variety of cause and effects makes for an impossible number of outcomes, a few of which make for good sigler stories

Hey treed:

JP's picture
Math quote: "Probability is the very guide of life." -Cicero (106-43 B.C.) (Sadock: that's how you shift treed's attention away from the pointless silliness. Try it some time; it really works!)

 

- "I don't have time for a grudge match with every poser in a parka." -Dr. Horrible


So was Cicero a mathematician or a philosopher?

sadock's picture

That sounds more like philosophy than math to me. But history is *so* not my thing.

almost all your mathematicians

treed's picture

were philosophers in the first place (both are logic based)
did you know that Napolean was a fair mathematician?? he has a theorem named for him.

DesCartes (I think, therefore i am) was one of the greats in mathematics, you have him to thank for the "Cartesian" plane (graphs) and well as other things in set theory and such. Plato and Socrates were both. it has to do with organizing your thoughts and stretching the boundries of your minds (no wonder people used to think women couldn't do mathematics, waits for the shoes and books to be thrown)
on th esubject of women and mathematics, i actually believe women should be dominating the field, women as a group tend to look at things from more than one perspective, something you need to do to be truely great in mathematics.
oops, i started rambling, laters#1

Kinda off topic, but

Wolf's picture

who really cares? Anyway, it reminded me of the time I saw a bulldog attain the ultimate goal of canines everywhere. He actually caught the car he was chasing. Although the car was going at a relatively slow speed, it didn't work out so well for the shit for brains pooch, who discovered too late that as difficult as it is too bite into a moving tire, it is almost infinitely more difficult to disengage from said giant rubber toy.  

Woof, splat, woof splat, woof, splat, splat, splat, splat, splat, screech, "EEEEEWWW!!!

Ummm.......

sadock's picture

Isn't the point of a forum to discuss things?!? That was my impression. Throw things out there and see what people thought. Idea stifler. And from a teacher no less....

cmon sadock

sMUTgREMLIN's picture

isn't it SOP for teachers to be the first to stifle ideas?(I think its in the handbook)  it's their way of getting back at the masses for the lack of pay and respect we give them.

Crap!

just ran across this

sMUTgREMLIN's picture

just thought I'd post it for your moobiness (kinda like your highness...cept different)

Who's a friend to the King of all the monkey's?
Who's a pal to the duck who won't fly south?
Who's the buddy of the Bible Quoting Aardvark?
Who's the chum of the cat inside your mouth?

He is a cow! It's Mooby Cow!
Oh sweet Bovine, our lives to you we vow!
We want him now! That Mooby Cow!
'Cause we're all soldiers in the Mooby Troops, Ka-Pow!

Oh we'll all have some loverly adventures
with Surly and the Pat-Pat Monkey King!
And with Enoch and Little Eddie Dentures!
We'll put smiles on the grumpies as we sing!

About that cow! Mooby the Cow!
Who only moos when we beg and scream and shout!
Master of Tao! Mooby the Cow!
With only sacred enlightenedness allowed! 

 

 

 

god I love that movie, bring on more Buddy Christ!

Gmork's picture

Absolutely!  Also follow KEvin Smith on his MySpace & Facebook pages.  He's pretty active on MySpace ...well, there was a little delay as he was in the throes of making Zach & Miri, but he gives a lot of behind the scenes type updates. He also talks a lot about what's going on in his personal life...everything from playing poker to when he's had a satisfying BM.  Amazingly open and honest and down to earth.

Now that I'm used to it there

Twowire's picture

I agree.  But If you have a page full of posts the side bar menus are at the top and if you want to go back to them you have scroll all the way back up. (what can I say I'm lazy!) But you know what would be neat?  What if as you scroll down the side bar menus move also and always stay on screen as you scroll around. I've seen this on other sites, but dont know how much of a pain it would be for Pulsar, or if it could be added at all......any thoughts??
