I think that's a missing feature of Typst yes, to have figures be either "here" or "top next page" automatically, with that priority. It can't do that. The confusing part was that this has nothing to do with th

Having a per-table key for the hash function is what siphash authors propose and what many do to combat dos attacks right? For example Rust's default HashMap. The keys are hidden/secret to the system external to the application.

Exactly, if one eats like the top shelf of the pyramid (minus the milk products) this looks like autoimmune protocol diets.

You can start using typst by installing it using rust tooling (that's one way to install it): `cargo install typst-cli` Or install it using vscode's extensions, or install it for neovim using mason. That's a few commonly used

Because it's not twitter anymore. The twitter that was is dead.

I see that many of you still call it twitter. I get if it's a protest, but current X seems very unlike twitter, so I don't understand why it should be called by that name.

The idea that we can independently decide what to ignore in life is a fallacy I think. Not read regularly sure, but we need to know what's written on X in some cases when it could be important for news or politics.

To be fair I think most English speakers are unfamiliar with how to type most accents. But it appears to me that æ is available as long press "accented character" just like é and ë, also used in English, so they are equally reacha

I hope that the implication is that æ is obsolete in English. Because it is used in English!

I believe ripgrep has only or mostly dependencies that the main author also controls. It's structured so that ripgrep depends on regex crates by the same author, for example.

That's.. neat. I guess lots more people show up for summer solstice though? Or are they occupied with the mainstream-pagan Midsummer celebrations then?

Electronic dance music is the biggest genre in the data. So then easy to play shouldn't matter. It's still an interesting question. I think playing Db is pretty nice on the piano even if it's not the easiest.

It's a brief and lighthearted explanation and trying to overgeneralize it doesn't make sense. There's always more details to it. Besides, there's plenty of shield volcano ("nice") events in the history of the Y

Turning a dictionary into a tuple of tuples `((k1, v1), (k2, v2), ...)`; isn't that a reasonable way? If you want to have hash map keys, you need to think about how to hash them and how to compare for equality, it's just that. The

I don't think hotspots can be said to have different composition. But if the hotspot is under a continent or an ocean plate makes a difference for the type of eruptions. Hawaii is in the middle of an ocean plate, no continental crust t

Just to add, there are two main categories of volcanism, shield volcanoes (hot spots, mid ocean ridges) and stratovolcanoes (continental and subduction zone volcanoes). Hawaii is the first kind ("tourist friendly"), Vesuvius at Po

Hawaii volcanism is what geologists seem to call "nice and friendly" - low viscosity lava, not prone to explosive eruptions (unlike the stratovolcanoes of the Andes or the Pacific rim in general) - this is because it's caused
