Everything is in the elevation. I'm rather fit, used to be in the army nearly ten years ago. These days I hike now and then. Last weekend I went on a wee tip, 25 km and 1400 m elevation; it took me 9 hours, not including my lunch break

vimtex is so nice. At every new LaTeX project I have, I find out something new about its capabilities; I had never heard of the concealment before. EDIT: this seems to actually be vanilla vim. vimtex is still great, though!

Hydrogen escapes the atmosphere because it is extremely light and the planet's gravity cannot hold on to it.
