    Hello Does anyone know why pdf files look a thousand times better in Foxit Reader than in Adobe Acrobat Reader (or DC)? Nothing looks smooth in Adobe, whereas everything is a piece of art in Foxit Reader. Is there a possibility to make my pdfs in Adobe look like they would look in Foxit? Because I have Adobe Acrobat DC, and I use this a lot to modify pdfs, but it's just a shame they don't look as good as in Foxit Reader. Thanks Functionella

  4. Hi I guess this is a question about image analysis. I'm looking for an automated method of counting the number of bats in pictures, like the one below. I don't have a background in CS, so preferably I need something that doesn't require any programming. Please let me know if there exists anything that fits this purpose. Thanks in advance. FYI this is for my senior project. I'm studying how Mexican free-tailed bats synchronize their emergence. For instance, how does their echolocation intensity correlate with this group behavior. (Maybe someone will be interested in this)

    I remember a few years back (before Google) when searching was simpler. Not as efficient ,for sure but the results were not skewed by advertising or geographical constraints. As an example ,I have just been searching the term "upper landing" to satisfy my curiosity that it was indeed used to indicate an area in the first floor of a building. The first pages seem to be overwhelmed with some business location in America which is called Upper Landing" and I do not have the energy to create my own filter to weed all these unnecessary results out to find what it is that I want. Is there a search engine that will not track my IP address or try to…

    In linguistics, a cognates are words two different languages that sound the same and have the same meaning. English "beer" and German "Bier" are cognates. Similarly, false cognates sound the same, but have vastly different meanings. English "gift" and German "Gift" are false cognates, as an English gift is something you get someone you like and the German Gift is something you give someone you want to die, namely poison. In CS, different languages have similar ideas with similar names. Floats, ints, and doubles are everywhere. I'm interested in seeing your favorite examples false cognates in programming languages. My favorite is the for loop. Python's for loop…

  12. I need to read a long technical document with many hyperlinks in it. If I click on a hyperlink, that text becomes visible in a different window. But what I need to do is to have these hyperlinks open on a different networked computer screen. The aim is to have several screens where the original document and several hyperlinked documents are all visible simultaneously. This seems like an obvious requirement, but we can't find any method of doing it. Any ideas anybody?

    On occasion my keyboard locks up. IBM thinkpad, Windows 7. It occurs when I am typing a message in a forum like now. Fortunately my mouse still works, so I can save the (incomplete) message and then restart the computer, freeing the keyboard. Any ideas why it is happening and is there a simpler way to free the keyboard?

Why do they have to be in the same computers/net with internet access ? Not saying to pull the net plug, but having NO PLUG at all ! A totally isolated internal workings.

    Cloud computing. Is it potentially dangerous? At the risk of sounding somewhat Luddite, why did my alarm bells instantly start ringing when I first heard about The Cloud? Being of the generation who saw the very first home computers arrive, I'm naturally used to the hard solutions, where software resides on discs and later in USB sticks. I remember actually having to get my head around the concept of owning a hard drive. Now we're not just looking at a future where our files can be stored remotely - but soon, we'll be able to boot from a remote source - and have our software titles to hand on a shared resource. Is this set to depersonalise our computing experienc…

  20. Hey, I am generating a stream of data and using xmlhttp to send data to php backend to be saved on a new line. Each line is numbered incrementally sometimes I have instances where 6 is after 8 in my file and sometimes the line is missing entirely or has truncated data and messes up the whole program. Note that the xmlhttp requests are only sent locally and not over the internet so I am unsure why some lines would be weird like that. Has anybody here had a problem with this before? There could be maybe 100000+ requests but even one messing up is a problem. It seems to work fine in edge browser but chrome misses some requests and firefox is missing a lot of requests and…

  25. I am having trouble understanding that how this complement of input variable is working in the circuit below. Please help. The Process:-- Our motive is to draw a circuit diagram with only a NOR gate of the Boolean expression :-- Step 1:-- Step 2 :-- Step 3 :-- Now from step 2 to step 3 we have to remove the inverters and complement the input variables as marked in the image. So, my question is how this complementation is working? In some places it remains the same (in below 'D' & 'A') and in some places its complements. Any help will be appreciated.
