You're pretty tensor mad, I'm not sure which.

It's good to get to the root of it.

It's nice to have it squared away.

It is nice, because a large fraction of the time it isn't.

I can see we're divided on the issue, and I take this as a sine. As such, I had to look up Euler's number to see if he could help Laplace transform this mess in time before we go off on tangents.

Hello all,
Imagine you start reading a book in your computer (let's say in Microsoft Edge) and then you want to keep reading in your Android phone where you left it on the computer...
Is there any free software that allows you to do that?
Thank you all!

If you're using Kindle Reader on all your devices (and http://read.amazon.com[^]) in your browser then Amazon will track your location in your book no matter which one you are on.
It's one of the reasons I like the Kindle reader app so much.
For example, I'll read some of a particular book on my iPad (running Kindle Reader app).
The next day, I'm waiting in line at lunch and I open the same book on my Android phone.
The Kindle app asks me, "you're most recent location is at xxxx on your iPad. Do you want to move to that location?" Just click [OK] and you go there. Really great.
Also, as I recently learned you can see your highlights / notes for all your books by going to :
Kindle Notes[^]
It'll have you sign into your account, of course.

Well, it depends. I meant location inside book.
But, they probably know your geographical location too.
Plato said this about learning to read... “If men learn this, it will implant forgetfulness in their souls; they will cease to exercise memory because they rely on that which is written, calling things to remembrance no longer from within themselves, but by means of external marks.
Others have feared electricity and automobiles, etc.
I'm not sure we can escape it.

No - it's know what you're reading and where you are in your book that's disturbing.
What you've read. What you didn't finish.
If I correctly recall, Amazon can reach into your kindle whenever they want and do whatever they want.
And, of course, the GPS.

I imported a pdf book using my Kindle Desktop App on Windows 10. I was hoping it would copy that pdf to my amazon account so that I could read that pdf book from any of my devices. It did not nor do I see a way to do it.
So, this only works with amazon kindle books, it appears.

Yeah, unfortunately, that doesn't seem to work.

... and if all your devices are allowed to phone home. The wifi is a battery vampire on my Kindle 3; it's only on long enough to download a new book unless I forget to turn it off again, so that never works for me.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
