   I really enjoyed these memos and once converted the whole book into epub format for reading it on my e-ink device. https://github.com/baruchel/misc/tree/master/contribs

   It doesn't sound better in french. Any reasonable french version should be translated as "from".

   From a security point of view, there is no difference between being able to access your data and actually doing it. You may picture such or such company as better than another one (and maybe it is, though I strongly doubt it) if you want, b

   I have used Apl385 during a long time as my daily monospace font. It shares some features with such font (probably why I don't use it any longer!) https://vfoley.xyz/lesser-known-coding-fonts/

   Many great books are already enumerated here. If I am not wrong, nobody mentioned Roadside picnic yet. Also liked Memoirs Found in a Bathtub by S. Lem.

    At first I thought mist if these headlines were related to new functional languages from the ML family. Since I enjoy reading the headlines without immediately clicking on the links, it took me a little time to understand that ML had nothin

    I still use Troff as my daily typesetting tool. But I don't use Groff which doesn't handle utf-8 and is rather bad for accurate formatting. I use the less known Heirloom Troff, which is very good.

    The reason you give (write only programming language) is indeed ONE of the reasons people may give when discussing about array-languages, and it is actually a serious reason to consider. Having spent much time on it as well as on J, I hope

    I have been using Troff for about 25 years. I migrated from GNU Troff (groff) to Heirloom Troff because the latter has a very great support for typography and micro-typography. Not only does it use Knuth's algorithm for typesetting, bu

    I see several contributors commenting about Borges as one of their favorite writers. May I suggest the name of Ted Chiang, whose short stories are very Borges-alike? His story "Exhalation" for instance could have been written by B

    Fond of Heirloom Troff (rather than GNU Troff). See https://n-t-roff.github.io/heirloom/doctools.html Native support for TTF and OTF fonts. Knuth's algorithm for formatting paragraphs.

    Pragmata Pro is not a publicly-licensed font and can't be embbeded in such a site. Are you aware of Iosevka however? It is a similarily ambitious project. The glyphs have several variants and you can get some variant sharing many featu
