Skip ID extraction and rendering based on database timestamps Updated 2025-01-10 +Created 1970-01-01
Now that we can reliably split files at will with
\Include, I finally added this feature.This means while developing a website locally with the OurBigBook CLI, if you have a bunch of files with an error in one of them, your first run will run slowly until the error:but further runs will blast through the files that worked, skipping all files that have sucessfully converted:so you can fix file by file and move on quickly.

This was not fully trivial to implement because we had to rework how duplicate IDs are checked. Previously, we just nuked the DB every time on a directory conversion, and then repopulated everything. If a duplicated showed up on a file, it was a duplicate.
But now that we are not necessarily extracing IDs from every file, we can't just nuke the database anymore, otherwise we'd lose the information. Therefore, what we have to do is to convert every file, and only at the end check the duplicates.
Managed to do that with a single query as documented at: stackoverflow.com/questions/71235548/how-to-find-all-rows-that-have-certain-columns-duplicated-in-sequelize/71235550#71235550
Added
ourbigbook --format-source automatic code formatting. I implemented it for the following reasons:- I want to do certain automatic modifications to source code on web, e.g.:
- allow users to select the parent article of a new article on the web UI, but that is currently doable only with
\Includemacros - allow users to edit the source only for a specific header
- allow users to select the parent article of a new article on the web UI, but that is currently doable only with
- later on, much later, this will allow WYSIWYG export to plaintext
This also ended up having one unexpected benefit: whenever a new feature is added that deprecates an old feature, by converting the large corpus from github.com/cirosantilli/cirosantilli.github.io to the new feature I can test the new preferred feature very well.
For example, converting
\x[blue cat] en masse to the new insane syntax <blue cat> found several bugs with the new insane syntax.This seemed somewhat easy at first, so I started it as a way of procrastinating more urgent Web features (web scares me, you know), but it ended being insanely hard to implement, because there are many edge cases. Also, most bugs are not acceptable, as they would corrupt your precious source code and potentially output.
But well, it is done!
WikiAlpha is an alternative to Wikipedia, where the main difference is that our deletion policy is far more lenient with regard to notability requirements. Basically, WikiAlpha is a near-indiscriminate collection of information in the form of articles on any topic: you can create an article about the band you just started, your pet dog, yourself, your house - as long as your content does not fall under our speedy deletion policy, it will likely remain on the site forever!
- css/flex.html: illustrates basic flex usage, including:
flex-grow: if there's space left, this determines how much extra space will be given to each.flex-basis: the size the items want to be. But if there isnt' enough space, this can be cut up.Note that the minimal space required by children of the flex children cannot be necessarily cut up, and might lead things to overflow out of the container.flex-shrink: if there's space missing, this determines how much extra space will be removed from eachflex-basis
Other examples include:
- css/flex-fill-vertical.html: minimal setup for a editor: docs.ourbigbook.com/editor
That example calculates and displays the final widths via JavaScript, making it easier to understand the calculations being done.
The change of basis matrix is the matrix that allows us to express the new basis in an old basis:
Mnemonic is as follows: consider we have an initial basis . Now, we define the new basis in terms of the old basis, e.g.:which can be written in matrix form as:and so if we set:we have:
The usual question then is: given a vector in the new basis, how do we represent it in the old basis?
That is the matrix inverse.

Source. I will take each and every one of these dwarves over an army from the Iron Hills. For when I called upon them they answered. Loayalty. Honour. And willing heart. I can ask no more than that.
We map each point and a small enough neighbourhood of it to , so we can talk about the manifold points in terms of coordinates.
Does not require any further structure besides a consistent topological map. Notably, does not require metric nor an addition operation to make a vector space.
A notable example of a Non-Euclidean geometry manifold is the space of generalized coordinates of a Lagrangian. For example, in a problem such as the double pendulum, some of those generalized coordinates could be angles, which wrap around and thus are not euclidean.
When debugging complex software, make sure to keep notes of every interesting find you make in a note file, as you extract it from the integrated development environment or debugger.
Especially if your memory sucks like Ciro's.
This is incredibly helpful in fully understanding and then solving complex bugs.
