I wrote some new stuff and decided to publish them. When I did, I got this error:

``

It refers to an old text that was contained in the bigb file. I remember that I interacted with this part of the file (or with a different one. I don't really remember) while I was writing the new one.

Kind of unxplainable, but my first guess was that I hadn't closed the latex segment somewhere. It turned out that everything has been closed as needed.

The guilty part in question:
``
==== Claus process

Created by the german chemist Carl Friedrich Claus, it makes it possible to convert hydrogen sulfide (from natural gas) to elemental sulfur. The overall reaction can be descibed as follows: 

$$2H_2S + SO_2 \rightarrow 3S + 2H_20$$
``

Am I missing something? I hope not!


Problems with export of index.bigb

Whenever I try to write an article, (on your markdown, not in the CLI version), many times the text gets all deleted. This happens when I type special characters such as "dollar sign" (in fact, as I was about to rewrite it, my whole browser froze and the website was experiencing high lag for some reason). 

So for some reason I can't write all that. I can't write dot dot either. Also headers don't work!  "equals + space" seems to be one of the deadly combos that delete all content.

Some specific key combinations cause the whole text to get deleted. Please fix this issue, so we can start writing articles. Also a save button (like a draft) should be present, because you never know if anything is going to crush suddenly.

I am waiting for the updated version or for an explanation.


Some problems I have encountered so far 

I'm your huge fan, Ciro

Check out: \b[https://ourbigbook.com], a <personal knowledge base> that can publish from <lightweight markup> both to a multi-user \b[<mind melding>] dynamic website, or as a <static website>. It's like \b[<Wikipedia> + <GitHub> + <Stack Overflow> + <Obsidian (software)>]. Source code: \b[https://github.com/ourbigbook/ourbigbook].

<sponsor>[Sponsor me to work on this project]: 100k <USD> = I quit me job and work on it one year full time. Status: \b[~144k / 200k USD] reached: 1st year locked-in, 2nd year stretch goal open at 200k USD. 1M USD = I retire and do it forever. How to donate: <sponsor>{full}.

I reached \b[100k USD] after a <sponsor/1000 Monero donation>, so I quit my job for 1 year starting 1st June 2024 to solve as many <STEM> courses as I can from a world leading university to try and kickstart \b[The Higher Education Revolution]. If I reach \b[200k USD], then I'll do it for two years instead. A second year greatly improve chances of success: year one I solve a bunch of courses, year two I come guns blazing with the content and expand further.

\b[Mission]: to live in a world where you can learn <university>-level <mathematics>, <physics>, <chemistry>, <biology> and <engineering> from perfect free <open source> books that anyone can write to get famous. More rationale: <OurBigBook.com>{full}

<Ciro Santilli's documentation superpowers>[Explaining things is my superpower], e.g. I was top user \#39 on <Stack Overflow> in 2023https://stackexchange.com/leagues/1/year/stackoverflow/2023-01-01{ref}<Ciro Santilli's Stack Overflow contributions>{ref} and I have a few 1k+ star educational <GitHub> repositorieshttps://github.com/cirosantilli/linux-kernel-module-cheat{ref}<Linux Kernel Module Cheat>{ref}https://github.com/cirosantilli/x86-bare-metal-examples{ref}https://github.com/search?o=desc&q=user%3Acirosantilli&s=stars&type=Repositories{ref}. Now I want to bring that level of awesomeness to <Master's degree>[masters level] <Mathematics> and <Physics>. But I can't do it alone! So I created <OurBigBook.com> to allow everyone to work together towards the perfect book of everything.

My life's goal is to bring hardcore <university>-level <STEM> <open educational content> to all ages. Sponsor me at https://github.com/sponsors/cirosantilli[] starting from 1<Dollar>[[$]]/month so I can work full time on it. Further information: <sponsor>{full}. Achieving what I call "<free gifted education>" is my <Nirvana>.

Besides that, I'm also a <Ciro Santilli's campaign for freedom of speech in China>[freedom of speech] <slacktivist> and <Ciro Santilli's cycling>[recreational cyclist]. I like <Chinese traditional music> and classic <Brazilian pop>. Opinions are my own, but they could be yours too. <Tax the rich>.

Let's <the ideal university>[create an educational system] with:
* no distinction between <university> and <high school>, <students must have a flexible choice of what to learn>[students just go as fast as they can to what they really want] without stupid <university entry exams>
* <OurBigBook.com>[fully open source learning material]
* <exam as a service>[on-demand examinations that anyone can easily take without prerequisites]
* <the only reason for universities to exist should be the laboratories>[granular entry selection only for space in specific laboratories] or participation in specific <novel research> projects

\b[I offer]:
* online private tutoring for:
  * any <STEM> university course
  * passionate younger <STEM> students (any age) who want to learn university level material and beyond. Can your kid be the next <Fields Medalist> or <Nobel Prize> winner? I'm here to help, especially if you are filthy rich! I focus <Students must be allowed to progress as fast as they want>[moving students forward as fast as they want] on and on <how to teach/Projects must aim for novelty>[producing useful novel tutorials and results]

  Let <Emile, or On Education>[your child be my Emile], and me be their <Adolfo Amidei>, and let's see how far they can go! I will help take your child:
  * into the best <universities>
  * into the best <PhD> programs
  and achieve their ambitious <STEM> goals!
* educational consulting for institutions looking to improve their <STEM> courses
  * do you know \i[that] course or teacher that consistently gets bad reviews every year? I'll work with the teacher to turn the problem around!
  * are you looking to create a consistent <open educational resources> offering to increase your institutions internationally visibility? I can help with that too.

My approach is to:
* propose interesting research projects. The starting point is always deciding the end goal: <backward design>{full}
* learn what is needed to do the project together with the student(s)
* publish any novel results or tutorials/tools produced <freely licensed> online, and encourage the student to do the same (<how to teach/Let students learn by teaching>{full}, <digital garden>)
For minors, parents are welcome to join video calls, and all interactions with the student will be recorded and made available to parents.

I have <articles>[a proven track of explaining complex concepts in an interesting and useful way]. I work for the learner. Teaching statement at: <How to teach>{full}. Pricing to be discussed. Contact details at: <How to contact Ciro Santilli>{full}.

I am particularly excited about pointing people to the potential <next big things>, my top picks these days are:
* <quantum computing>
* <AGI research>
* assorted <molecular biology technologies>
I am also generally interested in:
* 20th century physics, notably <AMO> and <condensed matter>
* the <history of science>, and in particular <there is value in tutorials written by early pioneers of the field>[trying to look at seminal papers of a field]

{description=
<JPG> image fully embedded in the <Bitcoin blockchain> depicting some kind of cut material art depicting a yellow robot, <inscription (Blockchain)>[inscribed] on https://www.blockchain.com/explorer/transactions/btc/4cbb32cd27b5b5edc12d3559bdffc1355ac2a210463d5cfaadc7ce9b06675b2b[January 29, 2017].

<Ciro Santilli> found this image and others during his research for <Cool data embedded in the Bitcoin blockchain>{full} by searching for image fingerprints on every transaction payload of the blockchain with a script.

The image was uploaded by <EMBII>, co-creator of the <cool data embedded in the bitcoin blockchain/AtomSea & EMBII> upload mechanism, which was responsible for a large part of the image <inscription (Blockchain)>[inscriptions] in the <Bitcoin blockchain>.

The associated message reads:
> Chiharu \[<EMBII>'s Japanese wife\] and I found this little yellow robot while exploring Chicago. It will be covered by tar or eventually removed but this tribute will remain. N 41.880778 E -87.629210
This is one of <Ciro Santilli>'s favorite AtomSea & EMBII uploads, as it perfectly encapsules the "medium as an art form" approach to blockchain art, where even non-novel works can be recontextualized into something interesting, here depicting an opposition between the ephemeral and the immutable.

At https://twitter.com/EMBII4U/status/1615389973343268871 <EMBII> announced that he would be giving off shares of that image on <Sup!? (Bitcoin-based social media)>, a <Bitcoin>-backed <NFT> system he was; making. In December 2023, he gave some shares of the robot to <Ciro Santilli>.
