Yes that works. What trouble did you have installing it? (It's literally a single binary with zero dependencies)

Hopefully they'll improve the reference system and multilingual support. But if you want a simple number for a reference, you can call "ref(<label>, supplement: none)", or if you want this to be the default for the @lab

The author of this issue is the main developer so I guess they want it done, just had other priorities. I agree typst needs better debugging tools, but you're a bit harsh. It has things like `repr` that can often be used to inspect obj

I have a similar "user profile" and find typst a much better experience. It's true CeTZ is not as mature, but it's much easier to extend where it's missing functionality (because you have a nice, normal scripting

Does it matter? It was probably obvious to the scientists working on the bomb that other countries would get it too sooner or later, including countries at odds with each other.

23 transitions between extreme hot and cold doesn't sound too difficult to do in a lab though. I guess it's harder to do in a lab if at the same time you want to reproduce the space and time distribution of forces experienced by t

When you're not in insert mode, you have the whole alphabet of keyboard keys to act on the text without Ctrl/Alt/Shift/whatever combinations. So you can get a lot done with very few key presses, using shortcuts that make

Having a small remaining probability of error is not a problem at all, if it's small enough. There are always potential sources of failures (such as a meteorite crashing on your server). If the probability of one source is dwarfed by o

Thanks, I was curious what are the main differences to Meson (the only general build system so far that I enjoyed using). From these past discussions I gathered: Xmake's biggest advantage: it's a single binary (vs Meson requiring

My guess is this has nothing to do with short term profits, but rather it's hard to make search robust to SEO. If you're right, Bing search should be better for recipes since they don't benefit from Google ads on these websit

For me it's the opposite: why do we have a gazillion of window managers (that just manage windows), and so few desktop environments that provide a complete and coherent setup? It's especially annoying in the world of tiling window

Thanks for the extra information. I guess CapsLock is not given this special treatment? (my actual issue was when using CapsLock as a Ctrl key).
