I'm certainly doing the project a disservice with this, but isn't it "just" basically a file format hack that basically acts as an "if-check" that allows the executable to select an appropriate entry point depe

This is odd, I literally just now got a corrupted database on Android and had to restore from a backup (it's still restoring). Are two platforms impacted?

This is what I see when I try to share a link: https://imgz.org/i3EfPoDo.png I'm using Firefox with uBlock Origin, it might be hiding your field based on its ID if it's called "share" or something. I was

Though, oddly enough, the English letters are used exactly how they're meant to be used :P

Ah yes, you are correct!

Omicron looks exactly the same as the English o (it's not visually distinguishable in most typefaces) so it doesn't matter much, but upsilon is an "ee" sound usually, not an "oo" like in "actually" an

Ah, I don't want to make a fuss about it (my comment was tongue-in-cheek), it's really not a big deal, but it is annoying to spend 2-3 seconds trying to figure out if you're having a stroke, and then some more trying to suss

How much is AliExpress shipping for you? It's free (or a few cents) for most of the world, AFAIK.

If I could withdraw thousands of dollars in cash from IB instantly and put them in a secure hardware wallet where they take no space, you bet I would do it every time I was done trading.

In the past, there were only enough components to fill a few shelves. Also, you can get many, many components from local stores now, if you're willing to pay the 4x-10x premium. Not many people are, so local stores aren't as commo

"Hippocrates" means "horse holder". Unfortunately, they turned out to be a bad investment.

The issue is that predicting that a specific thing will rise doesn't mean anything, for all we know you've been predicting EVERYTHING will rise, and got no false negatives but a million false positives.

There's a "[-]" button you can click to collapse threads you don't want to read.

To me, footnotes serve a different purpose, e.g. linking to papers, like the Feynman lectures site does. Expounder is more about indicating that you don't know something, so the text itself can change to accommodate you.

It should animate the text while unfolding, but, other than that, there's no need to know what was unfolded. You just click what you don't know and eventually read the relevant info!

Hmm, true, I've added it to the README!

Thanks! I don't think either of us have a Wordpress username, but it'd be great if you could include a link to the repo in the description. Thanks again for your help!

I prefer to leave the styling to the user, the library is intentionally minimally invasive there...

Oh, that's a good point! I didn't realize it wouldn't be discoverable, you're right.

Not currently, but it shouldn't be hard to add a button with one line of JS to add the required CSS class to all the elements. This might defeat the purpose, though, as it's kind of intended to save you from reading things you alr

It sounds like the old "nobody uses Firefox because nobody tests on Firefox because nobody uses Firefox" vicious cycle, unfortunately.

Thank you! I used to use footnotes too, but I didn't like how they took you out of the flow of the text. Expounder aims to specifically let users stay in the flow of reading, which is why one of the core instructions is that the text s

Hmm, my Docker-Compose file is much less complicated: https://www.pastery.net/zykzva/ Though I do have a 4-line Caddy config and a Postgres server on the host.
