@hugovdberg and good morning to you! Hope your day is as great as mine was :) (Job interview a resounding success, found a potential apartment within walking distance, made great strides on my thesis, and saw my cat. What more can a man ask for?)
@SeanAllred That sounds like a great day indeed, I'll do my best to make it a great day as well ;) (although I'm more a dog person than a cat person :P)
@SeanAllred and resounding success as in you got the job?
@hugovdberg It's a very strong possibility. According to my recruiter, they were genuinely impressed with me—they even initiated the whole 'next steps' question and set up another interview (more technical this time) then and there. The technical interview will likely be in C++. It's no Python/LISP/C, but I'm pretty ok in it I guess :) Just have to brush up.
According to my recruiter though, they've been looking for someone with strong interpersonal skills more than the right technical skills to some extent. Ours is a field that is fraught with people who just don't know how to communicate.
@FaheemMitha But testing started a few days ago. That way existing bugs can be eliminated before releasing it to a wider public. You are welcome to join the testers.

They'll removed it from MacTex 2014 => for testing, users with MacTeX 2013 or earlier will need to manually remove convert to ensure they can test properly
@egreg Well, if you test MacTeX 2014 with convert installed, if there is something that go missed that needs it then you won't notice. On the other hand, if you remove (or at least disable) it then any errors will show up.
Please show me how I can do that. And I want to use many times. Help me write a macro so that I can use every time I need.
For example,
\begin{question}
Texts in the question field.
\end{question}
"Put on hold as too broad"? "There are either too many possible answers, or good answers would be too long for this format."? The title and body of the question clearly state what the OP wants to achieve; it's neither too broad, there are not too many possible answers, good answers won't be too long.

How can you tell if something is a CFG or not? I am wondering if you could create a math/latex parser using a parsing expression grammar (PEG), or not. Is this possible, and how can you tell?

@JosephWright I know a little, but I won't touch that. :)
@Joseph: to be more accurate, only a few languages are actually context-free, the majority is context sensitive. What happens is that the traditional ways of parsing such things involve "demoting" the language to something close to a CFG and then later run checkings to cover the sensitive part. But TeX is way more complicated than that. :)
@egreg that's not the problem. It's just quite different from what I expect from an Easter Vigil
and it's 2.5 hours, of which I considered proper and nice only like 1.5 hours. I mean, my tradition is different, locals probably enjoyed it really well
@tohecz The rite has been restored to the ancient one some decades ago; in the past it was forbidden to have Masses in the afternoon, except at Christmas, so the Vigil was celebrated on Saturday morning.

I want to use moderncv's casual CV template with oldstyle cover letter. How can I do this?
I am writing an Article in LaTeX.
Please suggest me how to create a highlight boxes like the ones shown below in LaTeX:
