This solves a major shortcoming when authoring documents in Quarto or R Markdown that generate both PDF and HTML output. MathJax lets the author use LaTeX commands in the source that translate into proper output in the HTML, but before this work there was no support for siunitx v3. This work can be said to take over where burnpanck/MathJax-siunitx left off.
To use it, I copied siunitx.js from its repo to my Quarto project and then made Quarto add it to the published site by setting resources: [ "path/to/siunitx.js" ] in the project dict. I also added the following to the top-level YAML:
format:
html:
html-math-method:
method: mathjax
url: "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mathjax@3/es5/tex-chtml.js"
include-in-header:
text: |
<script>
window.MathJax = {
loader: {
load: ['[custom]/siunitx.js', '[tex]/html'],
paths: { custom: './path/to/' }
},
tex: {
packages: { '[+]': ['siunitx', 'html'] },
siunitx: {
'per-mode': 'power'
}
}
};
</script>And that should give you siunitx v3 commands in Quarto :-)
Of course unless you put the siunitx macros inside dollar signs they will simply be ignored by pandoc in the HTML output, but that's a small price to pay for maintaining a single source that produces both PDF and HTML while still letting you use almost all siunitx macros.

git commit -a (or git commit --all) automatically stages files that have been modified.
Some of my repos now include git hooks that would be completely negated if my git commit command message auto-stages everything.
Authored by Damien Irving, Kate Hertweck, Luke Johnston, Joel Ostblom, Charlotte Wickham, and Greg Wilson.
I learned a lot, and you should come back to it for more, especially the chapter on building CLI tools with Python.
All their advice is sound, except I do not agree that the MIT license should be recommended (which the authors argue based on the observation that "The last thirty years have shown that this restriction [of the GPL] isn’t necessary" which I cannot understand).
The book is a thorough walk-through that is sure to get most anyone up and running creating research software with Python and is beneficial to any researcher or research student curious about the Python programming language and the shell.

Is there some tool(s) that can identify which Unicode character I am looking at? (Because it is not always possible to copy-paste...)

I installed the Beeper Android app on my phone and gave it a try. You have to provide an email, fill in the confirmation code sent to it, and then you can choose a username (which will form your Matrix identity @username:beeper.com, although the app never tells you this).
Already at this point I'm starting to get disappointed - I can sort of understand hiding the complexity of Matrix instances from beginners, but no where in the app's preferences/settings could I find the full name of the Matrix account it created for me. Also, you never to get to set a password for the account you just created, meaning you can't use it from other Matrix clients.
The major problem for me is that the app does not let you connect any other Matrix accounts. I already have another Matrix account - the whole point of Beeper is to centralize your chats, so why can't I add it?
Maybe the self-hosted Beeper will let you add more than one Matrix account?

With Python, you can just open a shell and quickly try out some code in a so-called REPL console. Guess what, you can do the same with Ansible. Browse your inventory, and even remote file systems in an interactive shell with
ansible-console.
If you have installed Ansible via pip you already have this nifty tool installed.
I have invested some effort into Keycloak, but still not learnt enough about it to manage more than a single-user scenario.
The Authentik licenses look a bit complicated, though?

Excellent page listing their feeds, and not only their published articles but also separate feeds for submissions and announcements.
Code shared on https://git.scipost.org, although many repos are sparse or have not been updated in years.
They also have their own Mastodon instance, with an account for each field.
All in all, very impressive work by what appears to be primarily Dutch academics.
First heard about it from 4 gravitons.
Thanks to git log -1 it is trivial to view the latest commit in a repo, and combined with find ... -exec ... we can easily do that for multiple repos at once (for example see my commits bash function).
Turns out doing the same for the earliest commit in each repo is not at all trivial. Here is my approach (it should be said up-front that it's not pretty). But I wanted to get a handle on when I started working on some repos, and this pulled out the data I needed without having to do it manually for each individual repo.

Then for each repo, we list all commits (across all branches) using a custom format but then, importantly, only showing the last one which is the earliest commit.
To be able to tail this git command (and not the entire find command) we need to put it inside sh -c ....
Then we use a second exec statement to append the current directory name (so we can orient ourselves in the output) and then sort the entirety on the output (which thanks to our custom git format lists the commit date in the first column). Note that piping strips the colour from the git output, so no need to set colours in our pretty-format.
