@DavidCarlisle In the Guardian now. His Wikipedia entry has not been updated yet.
Actually, the (short) article is just a link to this Tweet - twitter.com/SamWangPhD/status/…

Exclusive duck! ^^^^^
(New IEEE standard logic port on their way...)
 
@HenriMenke ooh
Happy Easter!
@TeXnician ooh
 
@PauloCereda Happy Easter from me as well!
 
10:22 AM
Happy Easter to everybody!
 
@Skillmonlikestopanswers.xyz Happy Easter, mr. rabbit!
@CarLaTeX Buona Pasqua!
 
@PauloCereda Buona Pasqua anche a te, anche da parte del prof. van Duck!
 
@CarLaTeX ooh ducks
 
@Rmano would be funnier if it was inside an amp :)

Is there a way to have an itemize where each item contains an align* environment such those are aligned coherently?
Somwhere on TeX.SE (lost the link) I found a crude solution using \begin{align*} ... \intertext{\item ...}\end{align}

A: Aligning equations, splitted in an enumeration

LaRiFaRiOne item has to be in the enumerate. The rest can be wrapped into mathtools' \interext commands. % arara: pdflatex \documentclass{article} \usepackage{mathtools} \begin{document} \begin{enumerate} \item First do this \begin{align} c^2 &= a^2 + b^2 \shortintertex...

 
Thanks!
That was not the link I had back then
At that link there were comments how this turning out to work is just by accident
and generally a bad solution
 
@ComFreek There was another one recently not using \item:
2
A: How to align two or more groups of equations across \items in an enumerated environment?

MicoI suggest you (a) use a single align* environment across all items and (b) use \intertext instructions in which you execute \item \phantom{x}. (The \phantom{x} directive -- or something similarly invisible -- helps make LaTeX believe that there's actually some material associated with the \item.)...

 
I see
I'll try both
Thank you

@DavidCarlisle regarding the askinclude issue: Adding a detokenize to the four places where \@partlist is changed works for the example. But I'm not sure if this handles file names with non-ascii or even spaces correctly. Should one care about this? \expandafter\g@addto@macro\expandafter\@partlist\expandafter{\expandafter,\detokenize{##1}}
 
2:38 PM
@UlrikeFischer think it should be OK, although we should cross reference to github.com/latex3/latex2e/issues/217 as if we make changes there it may affect this I suppose.
 
@DavidCarlisle I have some doubts that the rest of the askinclude code can cope with such file names. "grüße.tex" explodes ... So probably it won't matter much what we do there.

Question: How can I create an easier command, like \noindex in the 3d line in
\newif\ifTheoremNoteToIndex
\TheoremNoteToIndextrue % Default
\def\noindex{\TheoremNoteToIndexfalse} % does not work
 
3:30 PM
@cis what do you mean by does not work?
 
cis
@DavidCarlisle It does complete not work:
\makeatletter
\newif\ifToIndex
\ToIndextrue % Default

\declaretheoremstyle[
notebraces={}{},
headpunct={\normalfont.\hspace{1.5em}},
%notefont=\normalfont,
headformat={\NAME\,%
\NUMBER\,%
\let\thmt@space\@empty{\normalfont(\NOTE)}%
\ifToIndex\index{\NOTE}\fi% <-------!!!!
},
preheadhook=\hspace{\baselineskip}\begin{leftbar}, postfoothook=\end{leftbar}, % optional 2/2
]{mystyle}
\makeatother
(Not) Runable:
% arara: pdflatex
% arara: makeindex
% arara: pdflatex

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\usepackage{thmtools}
\usepackage[thickness=1.75pt, vskip=0em]{thmbox} % optional 1/2

\makeatletter
\newif\ifToIndex
\ToIndextrue % Default

\declaretheoremstyle[
notebraces={}{},
headpunct={\normalfont.\hspace{1.5em}},
%notefont=\normalfont,
headformat={\NAME\,%
\NUMBER\,%
\let\thmt@space\@empty{\normalfont(\NOTE)}%
\ifToIndex\index{\NOTE}\fi% <-------!!!!
},
preheadhook=\hspace{\baselineskip}\begin{leftbar}, postfoothook=\end{leftbar}, % optional 2/2
 
4:04 PM
@cis I believe that it's thmbox that does evil
 
cis
@egreg Oha
@egreg But erasing the thmbox-stuff does not help
 
@Skillmonlikestopanswers.xyz Hmmm... I don't get it ;-) (I suppose there is some double meaning on amp?)
 
4:26 PM
@cis the optional argument is written to the aux, and this explodes if you put a primitive \if-command there. And beside this thmtools puts a group around the \NOTE so whatever switch you set there will not be seen by the following test.
 
cis
@UlrikeFischer What have I to use? xpatch or sth. like that?
 
@cis Switch the boolean before the definition and back after it. Or write a dontindexdefi environment. Using the optional argument will quite certainly break somewhere.
 
cis
@UlrikeFischer Yes they way with a sperate theorem-style works. I would like to have a shifter like \noindex ;)
 
Well I wouldn't try it with thmtools - that is complicated and difficult to adapt. Use tcolorbox.
 
cis
Does tcolorbox communicate with ntheorem or amsthm or has it it's own theorem-stuff?

I ask, because there are some several font-settings for head / note etc.
 
4:40 PM
@cis why don't you check the documentation?
 
cis
Because I have had a good time talking with you.

I read in this morning and couldn't answer the question quickly.
 
@cis ^^^^
 
cis
Yes, I will read this. It could have been, you happen to know that.

PS: I am sure that tcolorbox can be used here. However, I'm still interested in an elementary solution, so to speak, with amsthm / thmtools and thmbox, for the sake of interest.
 
@cis thmtools is in no way an "elementary" solution.
 
@UlrikeFischer nobody reads documentation:-)
 
cis
4:59 PM
@UlrikeFischer For me elementary enough.... :()
 
@DavidCarlisle not even autorotative documentation?
 
cis
@DavidCarlisle Yes, that's right
D.A.N.T.E. presents a ~99 pages script for installung TeXLive2020....

That's like:
"Oh, the new Playstation for birthday - let's read the manual for now!"
 
5:29 PM
@UlrikeFischer ʎɐʍɐ oפ
 
@DavidCarlisle unicode is full of surprises - nice way to handle the G ;-)
 
@UlrikeFischer meanwhile lesson 14 has cjk font
 
5:46 PM
@DavidCarlisle "Hello there" ;-)
 
cis
6:01 PM
Well, unlike mdframed (which uses newtheorem etc.), tcolorbox seems to be doing its own theorem thing.

So I'm going to try it all semi-classical (amsthm / thmtools / thmbox / index).

And regardless of that, look for a tcolorbox solution.
 
@Rmano to amplify the ducky message!
 
cis
6:18 PM
Announcement: I will become a tcolorboxer, after having used mdframed occasionally in the past.
 
6:36 PM
@UlrikeFischer I wasn't sure ABC would translate well

quack
 
@PauloCereda It's the Easter duck.
 
@AlanMunn sorry I ate all the chocolate. :)
 
@PauloCereda :( I still have some.
 
@AlanMunn ooh emergency chocolate :)
 
@AlanMunn we had turkey
 
10:00 PM
@DavidCarlisle How non-traditional of you. No lamb?
 
@AlanMunn well it was in the freezer (after christmas, for a rainy day...) and the choice of raiding the freezer or risking the shops at the present time ....
 
@DavidCarlisle ooh gobble
 
@DavidCarlisle Yes, makes sense. We're having chicken curry. :)
 
Selam ben Paulo
Oh wait, it's the other Turkey
 
@PauloCereda next time it'll be ....
 
10:02 PM
@DavidCarlisle preemptive oh no
 
@DavidCarlisle I won't say what we had yesterday.
 
@UlrikeFischer oh no
 
@UlrikeFischer in English, is it an anagram of udkc ?
 
@DavidCarlisle No comment ;-)
 
@DavidCarlisle ooh DC UK
 
10:08 PM
@PauloCereda I don't think she ate me, try again.
 
@DavidCarlisle oh
@DavidCarlisle Have you seen Dab Dab?
@AlanMunn @UlrikeFischer ^^ :)
 
@PauloCereda no
 
10:50 PM
@DavidCarlisle oh
 
@PauloCereda does the film end when it gets eaten?
 
@DavidCarlisle thankfully Dab Dab survives. :)
 
@PauloCereda they'll probably make a sequel
 
@DavidCarlisle oh no
 
11:20 PM
@AlanMunn -- A language question. When did "n times slower" take over from "n times as slow"? Or "...faster / as fast"? I really have trouble intuiting "slower", and as for "faster", I understand "three times as fast" with no problem, but "three times faster" I instinctively take to mean "four times as fast" until I think about it. (My mother was a second grade teacher, and she wouldn't have stood for this.) I guess it's an outgrowth of ad-speak, but it seems to me a loss of precision.
