I’ve proposed adding built-in assertion statements to expl3. Curious what others think, would this be useful in your LaTeX code? github.com/latex3/latex... #LaTeX #expl3 #TeX #programming

– Physics-based color repulsion
– Auto-detects muted vs vibrant bias
– Adaptive spacing to hit target count
– OKLCh color space (perceptually uniform)
Early Access: please break it!

I drafted a proposal for the recognition & formatting of acronyms, initialisms, and other all-caps sequences (github.com/witiko/markd...) in the Markdown package for TeX. Feedback from users is welcome: Is this useful, does the interface make sense, what problems do you see? #TeX #TeXLaTeX #Markdown

More technical than usual, but hopefully it finds its audience. 🤞 witiko.github.io/Expl3-Linter... #LaTeX #expl3 #programming #TeXLaTeX

That's because all changes in this version concern continuous integration, so there's no need to overwhelm the CTAN staff with it. github.com/Witiko/markd...

26.06.2025 06:45 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Just wrapped up Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild after ~120 hours, and it still amazes me how different it feels from Tears of the Kingdom, which I shelved after ~20. To me, BotW was an almost meditative experience, whereas TotK just feels too busy, among other problems.

15.05.2025 07:02 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0About 20 hours into a blind Zelda: BotW run. Loving it overall, but torn on the Lost Woods part. I hoped its linear, claustrophobic design would offer a fresh contrast but it just felt like a lesser game. At least it's short.
