I'm an assistant professor of history who also happens to tinker around in Mathematica for my research. My interests involve textual analysis, web scraping, and the like.

comment Stopping Evaluation of Manipulate after it goes through once
@SjoerdC.deVries @celtschk Since RuleDelayed and this answer have both really gotten me over a hump in my work and have helped me understand the behaviour of my programs (which were sucking resources/occasionally crashing before), just a sincere thanks to both of you!

comment Borked Find Window in OS X
For what it's worth, I have the same issue and I'm also not doing anything too taxing. I find that if I close the borked find window, it works on the second try. I'll be watching this closely as its an annoying problem!

comment inverse function not working — but providing values for some arguments, a symbol otherwise?
It might help if you could re-post your code so that it is easily copied and pasted into Mathematica (i.e. without the Ins] and with the Outs separated. A bit more context might help too.
