Can we infer what that visible light would look like unobstructed and with appropriate intensity to activate our eyes' cones?

The quote is confusing, because it's not always clear which Hall brother "Hall" refers to. Edward Hall, who developed the Minuteman missiles, was the brother of Theodore Hall, the spy. After reading the source article: < h

I think you may have misunderstood the proposal. Your 3rd party library example would have to write `pystd2025::HashMap<pystd2025::U8String, size_t> member;`. Isn't that stable? From the post: The sample code above used the p

I download videos I use for teaching. In future classes, I can still provide students with the video even if it disappears from YouTube. This happens from time to time.

For C++, I've started using FetchContent as a kind of distributed package manager. When I think about it, why is that better than git submodules?

Two adjustable wavelength emitters should be sufficient, right? So the picking-and-placing problem gets easier by factor of 3:2 rather than 3:1.

Dozer [0] doesn't require any special permissions. I guess this is needed by Bartender because it creates a little pop-out menu that shows the icons somewhere else? [0] https://github.com/aonez/Dozer/releases&

There is an Apple Silicon build under Releases. It's work fine. It doesn't ask for extra permissions.

I just realized I wrote "Mathematics" instead of "Linear Algebra" in the suggested longer and clearer title. That was a mistake.

I've only used Desmos occasionally, but I like typing math in it. Desmos also supports juxtaposition multiplication.

Ah, I didn't realize. I guess that would work for the case of 2-row tall statements.

Unicode actually has semantic symbols that could be used for a nicer 2D monospaced layout here, such as ⎧ ⎪ ⎨ ⎩ ( (LEFT CURLY BRACKET UPPER HOOK, MIDDLE PIECE, LOWER HOOK, and CURLY BRACKET EXTENSION). With more conditional rows, you could

We're using MathJax 3.x, which dropped support for inserting MathML into the DOM due to uneven browser support [0]. The example you linked uses MathJax 2.x. [0]: https://docs.mathjax.org/en/latest/output/

AsciiMath is a lightweight markup language for mathematical notation. Most mathematical notation isn't compilable. I Heart LA is focused on a compilable subset of mathematics. We chose to write our own grammar for various reasons.

I forgot that Julia can do juxtaposition multiplication with literal prefixes. (My guess is symbols that can't begin an identifier.) Otherwise, the types of the terms must be known at parse-time to correctly interpret, for example, f(x

A longer and more accurate title would be "Compilable Lightweight Markup Language for Mathematics" [0]. Using Markdown instead is like saying "Uber for X". Our follow-up project HeartDown (linked) explores embedding I He

Julia syntax is pretty nice! No multiplication by juxtaposition, element access uses [], and then your code is specific to Julia rather than convertible to lots of environments. I would love to see a Julia backend for I Heart LA.

It's not common to close that brace when writing math. (I've not seen it.)
