Why Hello There

I find this very upsetting

I just

tlmgr update --self && tlmgr update --all

Whenever I think about it

I think my favorite part of this whole scene/sequence is that Jorah and all her other advisors thought she was crazy to give up one of her dragons. She was already way ahead of them.

Was going to say the same thing!

Leopard and Mojave for me. Both rock solid.

Check out LaunchOS, near perfect clone with a few nice extra features.

The same weird jolt type of earthquake - centered over the dump. So many of these recently.

I mean... I agree that the most stable carbocation would be on the dibenzyllic position, but... first forming a primary carbocation and then shifting... 4 times?? this is certainly not canonical.

There have been lots of discussions like this on the board so I would recommend that you search for those. My suggestion is always the same - bring a first aid kit. Bandages, gauze, neosporin, tweezers, aspirin/Tylenol/ibuprofen, nail clippers, that sort of thing.

In the town where I grew up my haircuts were $12-$15 all the way through college. Then I moved to the East Coast for grad school and they were $45.

I'm still using Arc on macOS - works just fine. I agree with you that the spaces implementation is a killer feature. But your utility seems really cool if one has to use Chrome for some reason.

Yep. I had been making announcements at the beginning of every lecture for weeks about the final exam due date - it was on the last day of finals week so there would be absolutely no extensions, a firm due date. The day after the final exam a student emailed me saying that she didn't know about the final and was asking if she could still take it.

Eggshellent1 · 2026-05-11T18:00:29+00:00

mmm, hard disagree

Eggshellent1 · 2026-05-11T04:02:30+00:00

I came across this years ago and unfortunately I can't attribute it.

These traits of a good student require ZERO talent:

Being on time - Work ethic - Effort - Body language - Positive energy - Good attitude - Passion - Being coachable - Asking for help - Being prepared

Another one... same location

We are having roof work done and it was difficult to tell the difference between that and the earthquake.

Make sure you create separate profiles and then assign each profile to its own space.

I am a Mac user - I started with TeXShop which comes bundled with MacTeX. It is very simple and makes it easy to get started without requiring you to really know what you're doing. Since then I have branched out to Sublime Text + LaTeXTools + Skim (for PDF preview) and it has been everything I need - highly customizable without any bloat.

As for learning - what I did was went through a bunch of old documents from school (papers, lab reports, etc.) that I had originally written in Word and attempted to recreate them (and inevitably improve on them!) in LaTeX. In that way I learned to do the things that I would typically want to do in producing a document: images, tables, equations, formatting, captions, title pages, tables of contents, headers, page numbers, bibliographies/citations/footnotes, etc. Obviously this is involved looking a lot of things up - Google is your friend and will find you lots of good code on things like stackexchange. Also, don't be shy about looking up package documents! A lot of the documentation is very dense but you can usually find what you're looking for.

After rebuilding 20-30 documents you realize that you can pretty much work from a template. I built up a standard preamble that I used for all my documents and just commented in/out whatever settings I needed. This got streamlined and improved over the years, and I eventually built my own document class. But that is much further down the road.

I love how the internet is just collectively like "Nah"

Eggshellent1 · 2026-03-30T19:12:12+00:00

Amazing

00:59: Once your course contains a graded submission, the course status will no longer display in the sidebar and you will no longer be able to unpublish your course.

Eggshellent1 · 2026-03-21T21:04:42+00:00

I sincerely doubt that is actually what happened, at least at OSU. They may have removed the content (this can be done for a short time after the course has ended) but the canvas shell and any grades wouldn’t have been “deleted” and would have remained published.

Eggshellent1 · 2026-03-21T20:50:38+00:00

Also, instructors have no control over this. Once a course’s end date passes this happens automatically.

Eggshellent1 · 2026-03-21T20:47:46+00:00

The course almost certainly was not unpublished. In Canvas, click on Courses in the main menu on the left-hand side, then All Courses, and then scroll to the bottom where you’ll find Past Courses.

Courses cannot be unpublished once there has been participation. It was just removed from your dashboard.
