Yeah, comic strips are interesting. Are they a medium for communicating truths -- drawings matter less?
Or, are they a form of art -- drawings matter more (see Calvin & Hobbs creator Bill Watterson).

I would love to see Watterson getting active again.
But it seems like Berkeley Breathed might be coming out of hibernation[^].(Warning, facebook link)

I still remember reading Breathed in the paper and then buying his first compilation. He really took comics to a new place before others did. Amazing stuff and so funny. Still remember his parody of Star Wars and his commentary on waiting so long for the Star Wars (return of the jedi) sequel. Great stuff.
Edit
Oh, wow, I can't believe the comic strip I was talking about is available online:

I'm doing math homework and it actually makes sense! 
The number of permutations for an n-collection is n!.

You nearly know <big>π</big> and you are almost certainly aware of <big>e</big> so that's two other s!

Pi is 3,something (yeah that's right, I haven't even memorized the first digit after the comma).
And e is... 42? Well, pretty close[^].
You know, I could memorize them, but that seems so irrational

3-and-a-bit is close enough for carpentry!

I do carpentry and must say, no! 3 isn't close enough.
Maybe it'll be close enough for a sh*tty carpenter though.

I started writing my first article yesterday about the Corona SDK which is based on the Lua programming language however on the selection of languages on the article writer, the language is not listed.
Can it be please be added on the list. For code formatting too there might be some keywords that we perhaps will have to add on it. I'm prepared to volunteer some time for that too (if possible).

You need to raise this here: Site bugs and suggestions[^] as only the admins can do that.
However, it will depend on the perceived level of need (now and in the future) for such a category, and changes to the syntax highlighter are unlikely unless there is a large number of potential users.
I've never heard of it, so I don't know how large that demand is - but I'm guessing pretty small..

You find Lua in bunches of games and some other desktop software. The problem with creating a forum specifically for Lua is that the vast majority of questions are going to be dependent on the game it's used in and not the language itself. The knowledge base for those particular games/software will be very small. That is better left up to a forum dedicated to that game/software.

I'm getting kind of tired always slowly raising my hand when someone asks, "Who does something like that?!?”

This quote comes to mind as I am finally getting around to setting up the new laptop. It has been really bugging me that to use the default functions for the Function keys, I have to press the Fn key!!! It makes for great fun whilst stepping through code or even just refreshing a web page. I just checked and it seems to be a bios setting...but still, why?

Did your laptop maker get rid of the menu key and replace it with the print screen key like mine did?
Hey Lenovo, get rid of the silly little red button stick and give me back my functional menu key!
