Knowing the formula for the vaccine is one thing, being able to manufacture it at large scale is another (that surely require industrial secrets). This article has some more details: https://blogs.sciencemag.org/pipeline&#x2

I don't use many snippets, probably less than a hundred. Just tried it again. Not as slow as I remember, the syntax is also cleaner than AHK. Switching to it now :)

I used Espanso a while back on my Win 10 machine. It was nice, but I got noticeable lag compared to the smooth replacing of AutoHotKey (AHK also uses less resources). I might switch to Espanso in the future though, given that AHK is not ava

That intro in the README is wonderful. The three succinct paragraphs answer different questions, which is easily identified by the adverb in bold, and contain the appropriate information for each of them. It reminds me of axios.com articles

For a linearly recursive sequence x_0, x_1, x_(n+2) = ax_(n+1) + bx_n, the general formula for the terms is x_n = cα^n + dβ^n, where α, β are the roots of the quadratic x²−ax−b; c, d are solutions to the system c + d = x_0 cα + dβ = x_1. If
