Talk:Where's Poppa?

message: First, an apology.  I'd never added anything to Wikipedia before, and I posted a question about "Where's Poppa" in the article itself.  That edit has since been backed out, and it was suggested that I ask my question here.  I meant no disrespect - please chalk that up to my inexperience.
Here's my question - why is the movie "Where's Poppa?" almost entirely unavailable.  I found a torrent for it, but no DVD or any other format I could purchase.  This seems really strange to me.  You can find just about anything on Amazon, but the only hits for this movie are some listings for $75 and more - like it's some collector's item.
Is there some kind of copyright dispute, or just lack of interest? 96.242.223.62 (talk) 17:40, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  Availability of "Where's Poppa?" 

message: It seems that every time you see the film "Where's Poppa?" mentioned or reviewed in print, a line like "you may have seen it as Going Ape" (as in ref #1, the TCM page link) is always included--with no source. No example of when or where this was the case. I saw this film when it was first released and was alive when it was a phenomena--it ran for months, even years, at some theaters. Where's Poppa? was cult right out of the gate, as was the Robert Klane novel (also called Where's Poppa?). But I've never in multiple decades, going all the way back, heard of it being called "Going Ape". Any comments on this? Where does this come from? Source? Otherwise it really should be removed. 174.21.84.194 (talk) 17:53, 15 October 2018 (UTC)

When technology goes to 3-D screens, not just 2-D, I bet a lot of this hard-to-understand stuff will come to life -- like, if there's a computer screen you could peer into which gives shapes in 3 dimensions, like in that Star Wars movie when they plug in a disc and the 3-D image of Princess Leia appears -- that sort of thing -- that would be really cool so we could see these turning, twisting, hyperbolic shapes and get some sense of what it's about. And then Wikipedia could get not only .gif files, but 3-D moving .gif files -- wouldn't that be cool to watch.

Talk:Roger Cotes

message: Cotes gave a lecture series on hydrostatics and pneumatics, a book of which was published after his death.  It is available at the Internet Archive.  I don't think there is anything very original in it, but it is a good intro to the subject as understood in his time, and shows evidence of careful experimentation and practical demonstration, unusual in universities at the time.  Surely worth a mention.2A00:23C5:6487:4701:F871:7E12:BFBD:A0B6 (talk) 20:50, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hydrostatics and pneumatics 

message: I just wanted to point out some possible improvements to this section:
1) "Newton at first had a casual approach to the revision, since he had all but given up scientific work.[citation needed] However, through the vigorous passion displayed by Cotes, Newton's scientific hunger was once again reignited.[citation needed]" ----> Cotes deserves much more credit for his contribution to the Principia, but this seems a bit over the top. Just a few years before, in 1706, Newton had published a new edition (the first Latin edition) of his Opticks. And there are mathematical papers by Newton that are attributed to this period (in The Mathematical Papers of Isaac Newton, vol. 8 (edited by Whiteside)). I would recommend leaving out the sentence: "since he had all but given up scientific work" and also: "through...Cotes, Newton's scientific hunger was once again reignited." 
2) "The two spent nearly three and half years collaborating on the work, in which they fully deduce, from Newton's laws of motion, the theory of the moon, the equinoxes, and the orbits of comets." ------> This reads as if the second edition of the Principia should be read as a co-authership of Newton and Cotes and I think that gives a wrong impression. I cannot say anything specific about the working division of Newton and Cotes, in which the Correspondence of Isaac Newton, vol. 5 (edited by Hall & Tilling) could provide insight, but I think this might overrepresent Cotes' role.
3) "The first edition of Principia had only a few copies printed" ------> A few sounds like less than 30 or something, maybe this could be specified? According to the Newton Handbook (1986, Gjertsen, p. 470), circa 400 copies of the first edition were printed.
First time contributing, please let me know if this is not the correct route! --MelodiaQ (talk) 21:46, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Rowbottom cardinal

message: On p. 5 of  Mitchell's "Inner Models for Large Cardinals" I found that there is a model-theoretic characterization of Rowbottomness of \kappa, however I cannot find Mitchell's characterization in either The Higher Infinite or Rowbottom's paper. Theorem 2.1 in Rowbottom's paper does almost give a model-theoretic characterization of \lambda-Rowbottom cardinals (written as \mathcal C_\omega(\kappa,\lambda,\kappa,\lambda) in the terminology of the paper), but not quite, as for the theorem to apply to \lambda-Rowbottomness, the quintuple \omega,\kappa,\lambda,\kappa,\lambda would have to be relevant, but \kappa>\lambda>\lambda\geq\omega fails. Is anyone aware of a source for either of these or any similar characterizations in order to add them? C7XWiki (talk) 07:32, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg method

message: This article's specification for how to calculate truncation error makes no sense - it ignores the central idea of this method, namely comparing a fourth and fifth order estimate to approximate truncation error, and replaces it with a calculation based off of the derivatives and some seemingly arbitrary constants (CT(K)). I don't know where these constants come from, as I can't find them in the papers referenced.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.244.52.112 (talk) 19:01, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I was confused too, specifically because the 4th order coefficients don't seem to be used at all in the article. But It turns out that the CT coefficients are the difference between the 4th and 5th order coefficicents which is what you end up with if you subtract the 5th order estimate from the 4th order estimate. So those coefficients are and equivalent way to calculate the truncation error. This should probably be made clear in the article. 2620:0:E00:5529:78BD:18EE:B4BC:C056 (talk) 22:11, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Satellite knot

message: The swallow follow torus definition is kind of awkward, hanging on to the end of the paragraph like that.  I've never heard of it being used solely in the context of connect-sum knots before.  In the definition as-is, usually f(\partial V) is called a swallow-follow torus.  It's usually a colloquial term anyhow -- Schubert didn't give it a proper name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by rybu (talk • contribs) 
:yeah, I think it can be safely deleted...it's a partial remnant from the original stub, I guess.  As for what the definition of "swallow-follow torus" is, I don't agree that any essential torus in the knot complement is called that.  The reference, Adams, actually defines it as being obtained from the essential annulus of a knot sum, and it matches the usage I've seen knot theorists use (for example, look through some of the papers in a Google Scholar search ).  I'm not sure why people would use the term to refer to any essential torus in the knot complement; at the least, the imagery of the term no longer really makes sense then.  --C S (Talk) 09:18, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Scottish Café

message: Should this article be under its present title, or under Scottish Book (redirect), or should we have two separate articles? Ideally, I'd like to see one article, Scottish Cafe, on the building as well as the group of mathematicians, and the atmosphere of the time, while another article, Scottish book, would focus on the problems contained therein, as well as the history of the book itself. Of course that might be a lot of work, so from a purely practical perspective it might make sense to keep all the information in one place for now.
In terms of the gb hits, we have 158 for "Scottish cafe" math  (there's some Wikipedia reprints in that search) and 180 for "Scottish book" math. However, the latter includes hits for the "New Scottish Book" which was something started by Steinhaus later, in the tradition of the original book. So it's a judgment call. For now I'm going to leave things as they are and try to expand the article, but I thought I'd throw this out there. Volunteer Marek (talk) 00:36, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
