using LaTeX is easy, all you need to know is that when Donald Knuth failed the Mark of Mastery Exam and lost his ability to wield a keyblade, his heart manifested that power into a new person: Tela Type
Tela had the power to wield the Fountain Keypen, which was mightier than any Keyblade.
However when Tela's best friend Roxe was consumed by darkness (creating the nobody Xerox and the heartless Bell), Tela fell into despair and lost her heart too, creating the nobody LaTeX and the heartless Metafont.
You first meet Metafont in *Kingdom Hearts e-ε: ligature drop descender*, although they aren't that important.
LaTeX first apprars in *Kingdom Hearts π-ε : hbox overfull*, although at that point they're called TeX.
They only become LaTeX in *Kingdom Hearts Literate:coded* where they merge with their digital replica in a simulation of TAOCP and discover the χ-macro that was hidden inside themselves by king Mickey.

Wow. To vypadá na hodně zajímavou změnu ve školství.

Proč jenom, když tohle čtu, tak už vidím, že to bude zase zase černá díra na prachy...

Case in point: there's no way to build a backdoor that only the "good guys" can use.
When the entire technical community says that the EU's ChatControl legislation + similar pose serious cybersecurity threats, we're not exaggerating for effect.
Ayer falleció una gran amiga de mi familia. Llevaba 7 años con un cáncer complicado.
Mi madre se ha ido al funeral a Madrid, pero yo me quedaré a echar una mano a mi padre, al que la sesión de ayer de inmunoterapia ha dejado muy flojo. Él también sufre varias enfermedades graves desde hace años.
Coincide que ayer vimos una serie británica sobre cómo se vivió en un hospital británico la pandemia de coronavirus.
Y Raquel y yo recordamos esos días no tan lejanos, donde muchas familias pasamos a convivir con los cuidados intensivos y la amenaza fatal.
Todo ello me hace pensar (de nuevo) en la falsa idea de que hoy en día vivimos de espaldas a la muerte.
Lo que yo creo es que hemos cambiado rituales espirituales y sociales por prácticas sanitarias y cuidados.
Pasamos años acompañando a los nuestros en largos procesos sanitarios y afectivos.
Quizás no dedicamos tanto tiempo a los muertos porque dedicamos más a que los vivos vivan más y mejor.
Y cuanto todo termina, termina.

Why? Because he got away with it.
No media *at all* reported that their polling partner, founder and eponymous chairman of Angus Reid, tweeted out RT disinfo blaming Trudeau and then used residential school denialism to justify it.
We see you, media.

It's always wild to see someone state the very clearly spelled out intention in some piece of media, only for someone else to come in and say "I don't think that was intentional"
Like, there are some pieces of media where the main theme or goal of the work is unclear or not even something the author was thinking about. But there are other pieces of media that will state the central theme in dialog, or through some other very obvious method, and people will still somehow think that reading is unintentional.
Due to a recent app update, I can confirm that if you are using JAWS 2023, 2024 or 2025, the accessibility of the Apple Music app for Windows is not working well.
If you Tab through the items, JAWS says nothing at all.
I have this evening scripted this for my own use and have got good results, and doubtless I will do something with that.
But an app which used to work perfectly with JAWS no longer is working as it used to.
So… O’Reilly sent me email today hyping up how my books (really, just the one, I assume) is going to be AI-translated into Spanish and German, with other languages to follow. This was probably inevitable, but I still have concerns.
First: are there no human translators of these languages?
Second: who’s going to proof-read all 1,126 pages to make sure nothing got botched, especially given the technical nature of the content? The readers? Which isn’t even crowd-sourcing: it’s customer-sourcing.
I used to consider O'Reilly the top tech publisher, where one could confidently buy their books sight unseen. I think they lost the plot a while ago, this probably is the icing on the cake.
I'm sorry they are trying to do that to you.

The whole of my book on Building a Debugger is now available on Early Access!
It teaches you how to write a native code debugger from scratch.
