12:30 UTC (new) 2017-11-19 How to trip up yourself using Git . . . . Marcin Borkowski – Everyone and their mother seem to be using Git these days. And I have to admit that it is really a clever piece of code. However, sometimes it may not work like you want it to do. Let me share a personal story.

13:07 UTC (new) 2017-11-12 My email workflow – an addendum . . . . Marcin Borkowski – Some time ago I wrote about my email capturing workflow.

Assume that you have a pdf file with annotations (that is, those funny yellow sticky-note-like thingies which show some text when hovered or clicked). Assume that they are done by the editor of a journal you work for, and you have to modify the source LaTeX file accordingly. (This is a rather specialized use, but I think the feature may have more applications.) My previous workflow involved using a mouse (actually, a touchpad, but I hate both with a passion). But there’s a much better way.
