• Paint on Windows is getting layers and transparency support

  Qalculate is my go-to for cross platform calculator that is useful and is not limited to the most basic +-*/ operations. https://qalculate.github.io/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Keisan Casio is shutting down

  If you want a self-hosted replacement for Keisan I strongly suggest looking at Qalculate! https://qalculate.github.io/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• GNU Units

  I personally use Qalculate (https://qalculate.github.io/), specifically their CLI version for this purpose. I'm not sure how well it compares to GNU Units, but it works well enough for my needs; and it's fairly simple using English-like syntax. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Ask HN: Do you still use a hand held/desktop calculator?

  On the terminal, I use `qalc`[1]. It's a nice natural language calculator that does arithmetic, solves quadratic equations/linear systems, does unit conversions and even a bit of calculus.

• Best 7th grade math textbook?

  However, the math instruction that worked for me (I suddenly had to teach upper level math to expelled students in a self-contained class - and didn't know anything past Alg 1) was khanacademy.org, a free online program. I also learned chemistry and physics when those became required. Source: about 1 year ago
