No. There are hundreds of programs that easily read and create PDFs. OTOH, reading .docx is a pain. Far be it from me to defend Adobe, but PDF is nothing like MS Office formats.

His reaction seems entirely appropriate. He could ignore you, but then you might keep replying to his posts and potentially spread incorrect but damaging information. He is losing close to zero by blocking you, but preventing a potential bi

I think what would be useful for such a site is a README or HOWTO that shows step-by-step how to make an app like this. It does not have to be complete, or even nearly complete, the description for the unique parts would suffice. For exampl

"If you’re making requests on a ChatGPT page and then pasting the resulting (broken) code into your editor, you’re not doing what the AI boosters are doing. No wonder you’re talking past each other." This is in fact what I am doin

Hamming gave that talk many many times. There are recordings of it on YouTube. It is also the final chapter of his book "The Art of Doing Science and Engineering", which, IMHO, is worth reading in its entirety.

I was replying to your original post, did not notice you posted something different here. Formatting a string and then either returning it or sending it to stdout (or any other stream) has too much in common. The work is done in the formatt

I really would like to learn Rota's thoughts on Arnold's book on ODEs. I love that book, but I cannot recommend it easily since it has little overlap with our undergraduate curriculum DE course (in a physics department).
