A Microsoft format for flashing microcontrollers by copying files to a magic filesystem mounted on host, e.g. as done on the Micro Bit and Raspberry Pi Pico.
But too insane, and did not keep up with internet age, and so Ciro wants to kill it now.
Default mathematics typesetting used in OurBigBook Markup.
Key issues:
- github.com/KaTeX/KaTeX/issues/2228
newcommanddid not support optional arguments
If it only it were written in JavaScript instead of Haskell (!?), then Ciro might have used it as the basis for OurBigBook Markup.
Ciro Santilli was contributing to this, when CommonMark left private mode and killed it, thus wasting many hours of Ciro's time.

One of the main reasons why physicists are obsessed by this topic is that position and momentum are mapped to the phase space coordinates of Hamiltonian mechanics, which appear in the matrix mechanics formulation of quantum mechanics, which offers insight into the theory, particularly when generalizing to relativistic quantum mechanics.
One way to think is: what is the definition of space space? It is a way to write the wave function such that:And then, what is the definition of momentum space? It is of course a way to write the wave function such that:
- the position operator is the multiplication by
- the momentum operator is the derivative by
- the momentum operator is the multiplication by
physics.stackexchange.com/questions/39442/intuitive-explanation-of-why-momentum-is-the-fourier-transform-variable-of-posit/39508#39508 gives the best idea intuitive idea: the Fourier transform writes a function as a (continuous) sum of plane waves, and each plane wave has a fixed momentum.

CommonMark is a good project. But its initial release method was not very nice, they first developed everything behind closed doors with the big adopters like GitHub and Stack Overflow, and only later released the thing read, thus wasting the time of people who were working on alternative in the meanwhile, e.g. github.com/karlcow/markdown-testsuite which Ciro contributed to: Ciro Santilli's minor projects.
Ship abandonment refers to the situation where a vessel is left by its crew, typically due to dangerous conditions or the ship becoming unmanageable. This can occur in various circumstances, such as severe weather, mechanical failures, or after a ship has run aground. When a ship is abandoned, it may pose environmental hazards, particularly if it is left in navigable waters or if it contains hazardous cargo or materials.
"Tap tap" can refer to a few different things depending on the context: 1. **Tap Tap (App)**: In the context of mobile applications, "Tap Tap" often refers to the app store for Android devices, particularly in regions where Google's Play Store is restricted or unavailable. Tap Tap allows users to download and share apps, games, and other digital content.
Transmetro is a bus rapid transit (BRT) system in Barranquilla, Colombia. It was inaugurated in 2010 and serves as an essential part of the city's public transportation infrastructure. The system is designed to provide efficient, rapid, and reliable transit options for residents and visitors, helping to alleviate traffic congestion and improve air quality in the area. The Transmetro network includes dedicated bus lanes, modern vehicles, and integrated stops that allow for quick boarding and transferring between routes.
Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.Figure 1. Screenshot of the "Derivative" topic page.

Source. - local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
