In case there's somebody else who couldn't quickly find what book is this a review of, it's "The Fiume Crisis" with ISBN 9780674244245. In case somebody is interested in this part of history, here are some Wikipedia

I think that a more interesting approach is enhancing the fit of the mask to the face. Apart from improved protection, a better fit means that water vapor from one's body doesn't fog up one's glasses! One of the references of

Sure, writing kernel code in a more modern language could be a big improvement in the short run (well, as soon as one can write the code, I guess). But what about the long(er) run? By the time this project gets ready for serious considerati

I don't see what things am I confusing. But I should have been more clear: when I said that LuaTeX is current, I was referring to how it's still being actively developed. AFAIK pdfTeX and XeTeX get just the occasional bug fix.

Friendly compared to Wayland. X Windows offers many features that the designers of Wayland decided to exclude to keep their protocol simple, and for some security theatre reasons. But this simplicity is deceptive, as it means that impleme
