If you record everything on audio tape or talk only using phone and record it. Or you use gtalk only then legal bodies might take it seriously. But no one is going to take notes written by you seriously.

Is it legal to record phone conversation without other persons consent? I don't k now.

But can't the time and dates can be changed those.

As for recording phone calls, the laws vary from state to state. The states I have experience with only require one person on the conversation to be aware that it's being recorded.

I was wondering if marketing people use this.

This particular example, or generally quoting misquoted science when it supports your position?

I was thinking if you create a few strong monkeys this could work. If this monkey effect is true then it has got applications.

The monkey effect is unlikely to be true because a) it is paranormal, which lowers its prior probability a bit, and b) it has not even been observed, just interpreted into other peoples' papers.

Also, the habit of washing potatos is more something you discover/learn than something you do or don't depending on your peers' opinions (which seems to be a modeling assumption of the physicists).

Can you have man/help page? Because a lot many guys were confused at first. Nice job.

Just what I was about to say http://www.cinsk.org/emacs/emacs-artist.html

Dammit, Emacs. http://xkcd.com/378/

There is EMACS TOO!!! This is insane. I am going mad with happiness. I really really have tears in my eyes.

Read original SEAL code http://usnavysealfoundation.org/SEAL_CODE.html

Also add MathJAX so that latex works. Good job!

Wow, that is amazing. Will definitely have to play with that.

If you are using Windows: 1. Download Visual Studio Express Edition 2. Google for C# tutorials for beginners 3. Follow it.

If you are using Linux: 1. Google for Python tutorial for beginners 2. Follow it.

Learn some web programming by following tutorials on w3schools. You should be able to create simple static web page and host it on localhost.

Why C# and Python? Well both are widely used and are easy to grasp.

Once you grasp basic concepts like 1. if...else.. 2. for 3. while 4. case 5. What are libraries? 7. What is difference between compilation and interpretation? 8. What is the difference between editor, IDE and compiler?

the force will guide you.

And if at any point you get stuck you can always ask question at StackOverflow.com

Then, you can come back and "Ask HN" how do I become better programmer?

Best of luck!
