"Leudesdorf has proved that for a positive integer n coprime to 6"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolstenholme%27s_theorem#Gener...


Perhaps google should open up additional channels of communication for "top contributors" to escalate problems?


You've got a change under "// should not be touched"

Thanks for reporting.

Actually the comment is wrong in that case using BigDecimal.valueOf() is better since it could reuse the immutable object, so that is better for memory. I'll rework the samples to make it more explicit.


Fixed.


I did the same thing a few years ago (scroll down past the tutorial/examples for the annotated code) http://sparecycles.github.io/litijs?template

(but litijs itself is an undocumented hack) http://sparecycles.github.io/litijs?litijs


Is anyone else having cognitive dissonance with the % of ingredients in so-many-grams of water?

Does 1% baking soda and 0.5% salt in 2000 grams of water mean 20 grams of baking soda and 10 grams of salt?


That's exactly what it means. It's called baker's percentage[1]. I find it useful for getting repeatable results when scaling a recipe.

That's not what cognitive dissonance means.


0.5% salt by my calculation is still 2.6 teaspoons (10g) of salt - In 2L of water that does not seem insignificant. When written in terms of percentages it does.


Beginner's mistake. "Beginners mistake" can only be used as the start of a sentence as in "Beginners mistake azure for blue."


Some beginners mistake "Beginners mistake" as a phrase that can only be used at the start of a sentence. :)


FYI: I'm running a 1920x1200 screen rotated, so with my browser (FF32) as full screen I'm just at the point that the annoying #dd_ajax_float element is shown, but it covers the left edge of the first paragraph.


1920x1200 landscape, same issue.


Here also. It's awful UX/UI.


1366x768 landscape, same issue


Being a bit pedantic here, but shouldn't it be specified as a URI, "tel:0000" not a URL-ish "tel://0000" with 0000 as the authority?
