Cem baskanimi niye X'te biraktiniz. En azindan haber vereydiniz biz gidiyoruz diye. Battle of Bastards'daki John Snow gibi akitlerin arasinda kalmistir orada.

@igalia.com do you have any anticipation about when #chrome will start properly typesetting mathematical accents in #mathml. Even after two years of first release, math accents still does not stretch at all.

It's 1985, your C64 is switched on, currently loading a brand new game called Commando, your mates are on their way round to your house with more games, bags of Monster Munch Pickled Onion flavour and a bottle of Cherryade. You don't know it yet, but this is as good as life gets.

Yet ANOTHER reason to hate Overleaf 🤮

Now it has built-in 'AI assistance' that sends your draft papers to a third-party LLM. It also means that it shills for the product from right within the editor.

#Mathematics is not an object to be embedded in a text. It is a part of the text itself. Yet, #docbook group has yet to understand this simple fact. I wish #pretextbook would soon replace the #docbook crap. #techwriting #mathsky

Is there a way to number (and label) only a specific line in an aligned equation environment in #typst. I need a similar functionality provided by amsmath latex package. @typst.app

Hey #pretextgang. Admit that you actually enjoy misery and suffer that people endure while searching anything on internet related to #pretext. What was wrong with the name mathbook?

Am I the only one that hates #linux directory structure to the bones? Define a folder named os, put all the os related folders (proc, opt, mnt, etc, "etc") in it. But no, let's screw even home folder by putting tons of other config file in it. Even a penguin could tell this is wrong.

it's kinda sad that digital work is so hidden

like there's no messy study room or bookshelves full of works you've read or letters from people and gizmos and widgets you've built or stacks of drawings and diagrams

it's all just, hidden in folders, already lost in space, and eventually lost to time

I don't understand why anyone has not come up with the idea of using #LyX as a #PreTeXt frontend. That combination would solve grad students' writing toolchain misery.
