Asciidoctor renders AsciiMath to MathML [1], I imagine that it's a fairly common target after MathML (Core) was revived from the dead. While MathML is pretty verbose to write by hand, I think things like AsciiMath and LaTeX are on a di

You can use it with AsciiDoc readily, if you use that [1]. With anything you could also use MathML in an HTML-passthrough block, but it's pretty verbose. 1. https://docs.asciidoctor.org/asciidoctor/latest/stem

I've been liking the model of the Python library Dominate [1]. You write your HTML as regular Python code, and you render() once at the end, having full control over the formatting. Well, at least in theory; in practice the formatting

If you're ok with an imperative verb, "propagate" could fit.

Seems analogous to Apple and Microsoft in the 80s and 90s. Though I'm not sure which country Xerox would be. Maybe Germany in terms of the technology lifted by the later powers, but it seems a like a bit of a rude comparison! https:&#

I'm about to try my hand at procedural macros in Rust (as a last resort), and I started thinking about code generation. Although I've never done much with macros, I have on occasion used Python to generate big Rust files. In one p

Most ducks lack the roosting instinct that chickens have. Apparently Muscovy ducks are a notable exception, they'll roost in coops, on roofs, and in trees like chickens do. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscovy_duc

I might have to try it out. I got an interactive music theory course (Lightnote) built by another HN user after reading the "2024 side project show and tell" [1]. It seems to be in a similar vein, though with less emphasis on guit

TL;DR: I'm trying to Forth a Lisp. This is long winded, but maybe you have some thoughts here. I've been building a DOM-builder API recently in Rust. The existing options (there are many) tend to use textual templating, which can&

I think sometimes if there's a project that's getting highly voted up but the initial few comments are negative, the thread can stay that way. I agree with what you said though, when I was 13(-ish) I had an XKCD store t-shirt wi

I don't understand everyone's harsh reactions. I too would've loved it at 13 during the same phase, so what? The retro(-style) Casio community lives for retro-future kitsch. I guess it's a matter of taste.

I love it. If you track your mouse over the graph, the image of 50 Cent expands with inflation. It reminds me of another great interactive rapper graph: "rappers, sorted by the size of their vocabulary": https://pudding
