Sync bookmark from Firefox to Chrome: easy, quick, without any extension

Recently, I want to sync my Firefox bookmark to Google Chrome. Obviously, I think it should be a trivial task, and tried with Google. But I soon feel disappointed - most first results returned with suggestion to install an extension, like XMarks, or EverSync. I decided to tried with EverSync - I expected that I can uninstall it after one time use. And EverSync requires me to install another plugin, FVD Tab. This plugin, at its turn, requires me to install another piece, calls Nimbus Note. I cancelled all of them, when lost all of my patient. After that, I found a very easy way to sync the bookmark from Chrome, without install anything: 1. Open Chrome settings, choose Import Bookmark and Settins: 2. A windows appears, and you can the browser you want to import. 3. You'are done!

Essentials of Game Theory: A Concise, Multidisciplinary Introduction (Synthesis Lectures on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning)

DOWNLOAD Use as a textbook in Game Theory, Stanford, Coursera Book Description Publication Date:  June 27, 2008   | ISBN-10:  1598295934  | ISBN-13:  978-1598295931   | Edition:  1 Game theory is the mathematical study of interaction among independent, self-interested agents. The audience for game theory has grown dramatically in recent years, and now spans disciplines as diverse as political science, biology, psychology, economics, linguistics, sociology, and computer science, among others. What has been missing is a relatively short introduction to the field covering the common basis that anyone with a professional interest in game theory is likely to require. Such a text would minimize notation, ruthlessly focus on essentials, and yet not sacrifice rigor. This Synthesis Lecture aims to fill this gap by providing a concise and accessible introduction to the field. It covers the main classes of games, their representations, and the main concepts used to analyze them
