  • Can posting/submitting a link violate copyright laws?

    Hi, I have a few questions regarding copyright infringement:

    1) There are a lot of sites that allow people to upload their files and share them with their friends (e.g esnips.com). Many of these files contain copyright contents. Are the users violating any copyright laws? Is the website violating any copyright laws? Is/will the website be prosecuted or confronted legally through any other means?

    2) Suppose a wiki is started to collaborate information on ,for example, Britney Spears' music. If users start posting links to copyrighted mp3 downloads, is the wiki illegal? Will the wiki be confronted legally?

    Thank you.

  • Why is the dimension of column space = dimension of row space = rank?

    Hi, from linear transformation, I understand the rank is the dimension of the set of vectors after the transformation takes place.

    Hence, looking at a matrix as a transformation, the dimension of column space = rank.

    But why is the dimension of row space = rank also? What is the relationship between row space and column space?

    Thanks.

  • Find the values of p for which the series Sigma(1 / ( n (ln n) [ln(ln n)]^p )) is convergent.?

    I understand that n n < ln (n) < n^2 and that n^p is convergent if p > 1. Where do I proceed from there?

  • ∫1/(x^3-1)dx?

    Partial fractions? I have a feeling I have to manipulate it in some way or form, but I can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Why does a glass of water left out in air vaporize (eventually) even though it's not at boiling temperature?

    According to my book:

    "If the air is sufficiently dry and the water vapor is allowed to move away from the glass once it escapes from the liquid, the vapor pressure of the water will always be greater than the partial pressure of the air due to water. So water vapor will continue to slowly escape from the water until water is gone."

    Can some explain it in simpler terms so I can understand it XD?

  • Computer Science at University of Waterloo, Toronto, British Columbia, or SFU?

    I'm a student living in Vancouver looking to complete a computer science degree at UW, UofT, UBC, or SFU (Simon Fraser University). I'm looking for a good program that could lead me to a top programming job (e.g Google) after graduation.

    What I think so far:

    UW: Best program, but doesn't transfer AP credits (I have 6 AP courses).

    UofT: Good global reputation. Don't know how good their CS program is.

    UBC: Good global reputation. CS program is a joke?

    SFU: Little global reputation but programs are great (especially CS).

    Where should I go?
