Traktor Kontrol S5 S8 hacks

Warnings and instructions

  • You need to modify some Traktor files – do backup before you try – if files are incorrects screens become black.
  • You're doing that at your own risk!
  • If sth goes really bad – reinstall Traktor :-)
  • Traktor QML files are located by default in /Applications/Native Instruments/Traktor 2/Traktor.app/Contents/Resources/qml on Mac, on Windows look for qml in directory where Traktor is installed (I don't have windows machine around)…
  • You need real text-editor to modify files, you should try with Atom or Notepad++ to apply modifications
  • Files here are so called diff files, here is how to read them: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2529441/how-to-read-the-output-from-git-diff

Mathematics: What do grad students in math do all day?

Mathematics: What do grad students in math do all day?

by Yasha Berchenko-Kogan

A lot of math grad school is reading books and papers and trying to understand what's going on. The difficulty is that reading math is not like reading a mystery thriller, and it's not even like reading a history book or a New York Times article.

The main issue is that, by the time you get to the frontiers of math, the words to describe the concepts don't really exist yet. Communicating these ideas is a bit like trying to explain a vacuum cleaner to someone who has never seen one, except you're only allowed to use words that are four letters long or shorter.

What can you say?

Endpoint Security VPN FULL start/stop script for Mac OS X
#!/bin/bash
#
# The reason of creating this script is that Endpoint Security VPN installs it's own application firewall kext cpfw.kext
# which prevents for example PPTP connections from this computer, which is not appropriate if you need subj connection just
# from time to time
#
# Usage: ./checkpoint.sh
#
# The script checks if Enpoint Security VPN is running. If it is, then it shuts it down, if it is not, it fires it up.
# Or, make an Automator action and paste the script.
