You’ve gotta replace some stuff yearly on those houses by ocean spray, it’s actually a bigger problem than it might seem

The cynical read for “why wait until the last week” is to make China/US relations even more difficult for Biden. The Trump admin doesn’t have to deal with fallout.

Have you seen React Native Windows ( https://github.com/Microsoft/react-native-windows ) and react-native-macos ( https://github.com/ptmt/react-native-macos )? I haven't used eithe…

I still haven't figured out if the general trend is up/down for LaTeX (I have a vested interest, CTO of SpanDeX.io, but I'm not sure). My argument against "give it another 10-20 ye…
