My solution of Google drive hang up at "One moment please"

Today I installed Google drive to my Windows 7 environment to share files with my Linux machines. After sign in, the application window said "processing," then it hanged up. There was a button "you must enable javascript". I pushed it, then "One moment please..." after 5 minutes, I exited the program tried it again. It seems some security setting causes this problem.

My solution: set https://accounts.google.com as a trusted site.
Procedure:

  • Open the control panel
  • Go to network and control
  • Go to Internet Options
  • Open Security Tab
  • Click Trusted sites
  • Click the "site" button
  • copy & paste https://accounts.google.com to "Add this website to the zone" and click Add button
Now it worked for me. But if I removed this site, it still works. That puzzled me a bit...

I think this Google Groups thread has the most exhaustive list of solutions:

If, like me, you've tried everything else and still not progressing past the "One moment please" screen?
This solved it for me:

Basically, it turns out that some virus scanners can break VBScript on uninstall. It appears that Google Drive uses some VBScript. Running the removal tool for these virus scanners solved the problem for me. More details in above post.

Why A^{T}A is invertible? (2) Linear Algebra

Why A^{T}A has the inverse Let me explain why A^{T}A has the inverse, if the columns of A are independent. First, if a matrix is n by n, and all the columns are independent, then this is a square full rank matrix. Therefore, there is the inverse. So, the problem is when A is a m by n, rectangle matrix.  Strang's explanation is based on null space. Null space and column space are the fundamental of the linear algebra. This explanation is simple and clear. However, when I was a University student, I did not recall the explanation of the null space in my linear algebra class. Maybe I was careless. I regret that... Explanation based on null space This explanation is based on Strang's book. Column space and null space are the main characters. Let's start with this explanation. Assume  x  where x is in the null space of A .  The matrices ( A^{T} A ) and A share the null space as the following: This means, if x is in the null space of A , x is also in the null spa

Gauss's quote for positive, negative, and imaginary number

Recently I watched the following great videos about imaginary numbers by Welch Labs. https://youtu.be/T647CGsuOVU?list=PLiaHhY2iBX9g6KIvZ_703G3KJXapKkNaF I like this article about naming of math by Kalid Azad. https://betterexplained.com/articles/learning-tip-idea-name/ Both articles mentioned about Gauss, who suggested to use other names of positive, negative, and imaginary numbers. Gauss wrote these names are wrong and that is one of the reason people didn't get why negative times negative is positive, or, pure positive imaginary times pure positive imaginary is negative real number. I made a few videos about explaining why -1 * -1 = +1, too. Explanation: why -1 * -1 = +1 by pattern https://youtu.be/uD7JRdAzKP8 Explanation: why -1 * -1 = +1 by climbing a mountain https://youtu.be/uD7JRdAzKP8 But actually Gauss's insight is much powerful. The original is in the Gauß, Werke, Bd. 2, S. 178 . Hätte man +1, -1, √-1) nicht positiv, negative, imaginäre (oder gar um

Why parallelogram area is |ad-bc|?

Here is my question. The area of parallelogram is the difference of these two rectangles (red rectangle - blue rectangle). This is not intuitive for me. If you also think it is not so intuitive, you might interested in my slides. I try to explain this for hight school students. Slides:  A bit intuitive (for me) explanation of area of parallelogram  (to my site, external link) .
