comment How is AstronomicalData interpreting its date arguments?
I would be interested in your SPA implementation. Would you be willing to share?

comment Does Mathematica support collaborative filtering and recommendation systems?
As it is, this is a very vague question. Maybe you should be more specific about what you are looking for or what Problem you are trying to solve.

comment How to make plot with frame and two different scales on the x-axis (CMB power spectrum example)
I think the questions aims at the changing log scale of the bottom x-axis.

comment Applying TextRecognize on alpha-numerical table
@belisarius Brilliant! Working like a charm (with some manual tweaking still to do). Is there an easy way to automatically determine the number of table lines in the figure, or do I have to count manually and modify the code accordingly?

@sebhofer Following your walkthrough on Win 7 I get the following error: An internal error occurred during: "FrontEnd Job::Open Notebook". com.wolfram.jlink.NativeLink.MLOpenString(Ljava/lang/String;[Ljava/lang/String;)‌​J

comment Do you know of any web-based university course that is entirely Mathematica based?
I gave a course on Mathematica as a tool for astronomy and physics completely done in form of Mathematica notebooks.

@MockupDungeon There are always more ways to come up with some hand-woven solution :)

comment Plotting Error Bars on a Log Scale
@AnastasiiaAnishchenko Hmm, I don't get this error. Have you installed the package? Here is the [link]( library.wolfram.com/infocenter/MathSource/6747) . Download the zip file and install it, then retry the Needs command.

@AnastasiiaAnishchenko Just write Needs["ErrorBarLogPlots`"].

comment Custom arrow shaft
Agreed, that's cool. But imagine adding a few vertices, which would requires a lot of fiddling around with Transformations to have the Arrows where they belong. It would be nicer to let Graph do this. But still, very nice idea! +1

@cormullion +1 for the reference. Great page that I also used for many of my implementations.

@J.M. LinearAlgebraMatrixConditionNumber[Table[B[i, m]...` gives 2.63531*10^98 . My comment on the N[#,30] was to remind me that even with N the LinearSolve::luc error occured and that I had to use SetPrecision[#,Infintiy] to get rid of it.

@J.M. Neat! Unfortunately, this is no bottleneck. Still nice to know, thanks.
