I definitely agree that error handling should be improved. I'm trying to keep the LaTeX output as portable/minimal as possible though so I'm not sure if highlights are doable. My current plan is to output more diagnostic info

It supports every SI unit and many derived units. It doesn't yet support fractional units, e.g. km^3/2 though. AFAIK there aren't any fractional units that have physical meaning but they might appear in intermediate steps som

Haha I don't think I understood the concept of units 10 years ago

Hey HN, I created CalcuLaTeX because I was frustrated with my workflow for chemistry and physics homework. Generally, I'd use the Python REPL as a calculator and type each problem into LaTeX to turn it in. CalcuLaTeX merges these two s

I'm not too up to date with Godot news, but I remember that a recent update (maybe devlog?) added good multi monitor support to the editor, and therefore the gui toolkit of the engine, since the editor uses the engine.

Have you tried meet.jit.si? The quality is pretty bad but it's way easier to use than zoom which kind of has a reputation for it. I got my dad set up with jitsi in hardly a minute whereas zoom took around 10 minutes
