> Around 15 years ago I would typeset orders of service in tex for our college chapel

Your chapel was very fortunate.


Happy to share! There's nothing quite as distracting as a blurry scan of a chant/hymn.

You might be interested in an online editor [1] for small items. (I haven't used it much, but it seems good.)

If anyone is interested in playing around with this wonderful tool, there's an online editor (edit: no affiliation). [1] It is much more responsive than compiling in TeX.

I'm not sure why this is on Hacker News, and I'm even less sure why the papacy is so important to MAGA right now.

In any case, perhaps we will soon see the return of Catholic persecution in the U.S. due to "conflicting" loyalties between Pope and country...


Djot is great so far, and I'm eager to switch to it from Pandoc Markdown since editor support for Pandoc Markdown is lacking.

Looking at the repo's issues, I'm a bit concerned that it's already fragmented since some enthusiasts have implemented features far beyond, or against, Djot's spec. People seem impatient for v1.0...


Do you see a way to help and improve the situation?


I wonder if I'll ever see the day when Emacs's several terminal implementations are unified. How nice would it be if one could use term.el with libvterm, libghostty etc. as a backend?

On another note, as a light terminal user, I've had great success with MisTTY. [1]

And if you use Emacs, it's configurable at the buffer level. [1] This lets me build a version of Iosevka where `~=` and `!=` both become ligaturized but in different major modes, avoiding any confusion.
