In TikZ 3.0's new graph syntax, how might I generate graph nodes? Instead of \graph { A1 -> A2 -> A3 }; I want to be able to write something like \newcommand\mynode[1]{A#1} and \graph { \mynode{1} -> \mynode{2} -> \mynode{3} };.

I've not been on this chat (or any other) before - it looks kind of odd - are there no threads? Anyway, I wanted to ask a question: it seems to me answers are often posted as comments. I find that quite annoying - sometimes it looks like someone's hanging on for an answer so I'll go look at the thread (although I'm not the most experienced, sometimes I do know an answer), but find that 15 people have told them what to do in the comments. What is the etiquette?
Browsing TeX.SE, I have noticed that very frequently people provide answers to a question in the question's comments.
See for example
BibTeX error "inputenc Error: Unicode char \u8: not set up for use with LaTeX"
Is there any package for LaTeX dealing with a database?

@FionaSmith If you find that I'm the guilty party (I often am), please ping me with another comment or use my comment to provide an answer: hereby I grant you the privilege. ;-) This frequently happens because the OP forgets to ping when replying the comment.
Thanks for that link @PauoloCereda, and @egreg yes you are one of the guilty ones, ha ha! One issue is when you start out you don't have any privileges so you can't comment even if you wanted to - I had this problem on StackOverflow - I wanted to post a comment to an answer but I had to post a whole new answer, which I felt had to be more complete, and I felt it took some of the credit away from the person who had helped me.
@egreg why thank you ;-) Now, talking of comments, if someone can just help out the poor chap who wants a weird bibliography style, I could get back to my thesis!
I wish to have a citation in the text as follows:

@egreg I recieved my moka just now, so off to cleaning and some first time use preparations :) hopefully my hario hand mill will come in today as well so I don't have to buy different grinds of coffee for my coffee makers ;)

@JosephWright @tohecz I don't want to heat up the discussin about TL in Debian again, and without any opinion: Is the compiling/building process supposed to happen once by Debian, or by every user? Somehow i failed to see that point being stated clearly.
@Johannes_B Officially by Debian (now, AFAIK). However, there're strong pressures to move this to the user side. (A very weak lower bound I extimated on the time this would take for TeXLive on my computer is 24 hours)
@PauloCereda The radio is playing the chorus that starts with the immortal verses
Gloria all'Egitto e ad Iside Che il sacro suol protegge; Al Re che il Delta regge Inni festosi alziam! Vieni, o guerriero vindice, Vieni a gioir con noi; Sul passo degli eroi I lauri e i fior versiam!
The “libretti” of Verdi's operas are terrible. Just like the music, I'd say.
@egreg I've been there last year, unfortunately had only a couple of hours so didn't get to see much, had a nice presentation at the "centro sperimentale per modelli idraulici di Voltabarozzo" though :)
@Johannes_B biblatex uses \penalty\value{lownamepenalty}\space between the words in the editor field and the normal value of lownamepenalty is 25, which makes those space unavailable for line breaks when \raggedright is in force.
@Johannes_B Add \setcounter{lownamepenalty}{0}` to the definition of \myraggedright
@PauloCereda seriously though, it's nice, although I'm more into the more special Belgian beers, such as Leffe or Duvel, or the Dutch trappist beer La Trappe :)
Sorry to eavesdrop but @PauloCereda, why??? I can't imagine anyone thinking Stella is worth recommendation. It is, in the end, just dull old lager, with enough alcohol to make you drunk more quickly than you'd like!
@FionaSmith I don't drink to much beer, but never had that one. :) A couple of friends told me to try it, but it's insanely expensive, and I don't think any beer is worth that price. :) And there are some good Brazilian ones, so I'm good for now. :)
@hugovdberg If I had to go with imported beer, I'll probably stick to the German ones, I guess (there was an Italian one that was very good, but I can't remember its name).
@PauloCereda but you should definitely try a Wieckse Witte if you're ever in the neighbourhood, originally brewed in Maastricht (I was born close to that brewery), and now in Den Bosch (or, as it's officially called 's-Hertogenbosch should you want to look it up :P) actually again close to my house. It's a really refreshing witbier type wheat beer, especially nice on a hot summer day :)
@PauloCereda I quite liked Birra Moretti while I was in Italy last year :)
@PauloCereda well, if you bring some Brazilian drinks you're welcome to compare them with some Dutch drinks :) although I guess most Dutch drinks aren't originally very Dutch, I guess jenever is the most Dutch you can get and I don't really like it :P
I seem to remember drinking Antarctica in Brazil, but mostly because I liked the name... Personally I think most fizzy lagers are very similar and very dull. Unless it's super hot, I recommend hunting out darker beers, whatever country you visit! Not stout though. Ugh!
no @hugovdberg I had problems and so I had to go for the iso
now the iso version of texlive , tlmgr says
You don't have permission to change the installation in any way, specifically, the directory /usr/local/texlive/2013/tlpkg/ is not writable. Please run this program as administrator, or contact your local admin.
Running as root
I get this
I ran tlmgr install vsmono
No command 'tlmgr' found, did you mean: Command 'rlmgr' from package 'qdbm-util' (universe) Command 'vlmgr' from package 'qdbm-util' (universe) tlmgr: command not found

@subhamsoni as a normal user you probably don't have write permissions on the installation path, as root you need to make sure the installation path is in the search path as well
No command 'tlmgr' found, did you mean: Command 'rlmgr' from package 'qdbm-util' (universe) Command 'vlmgr' from package 'qdbm-util' (universe) tlmgr: command not found
if you changed ~/.bashrc or similar to add the installation path for your normal user root won't find it, you need either /root/.bashrc or /etc/environment (the latter changes the path for all users in all shells)
@subhamsoni then try adding it to a file the root user reads on starting a shell session, and if you want to run it as sudo tlmgr (which I recommend over su root) then this is the trick I used to get it working
@Johannes_B so true :) most things foreign are beautiful, until you get used to it.. but I still love to sit outside my backdoor enjoying the bathing in the sun while enjoying a nice meal/beverage :) Although I like my parents' garden much better, as it's not in the city, but close to tbe forest, much quiter over there :)
@cgnieder Saw Kröger-Vink being documented. Didn't you see comment in the tex-file i sent you? :-) The interstitial chlorine ion has one additional charge.
Kröger–Vink notation is set of conventions used to describe electric charge and lattice position for point defect species in crystals. It is primarily used for ionic crystals and is particularly useful for describing various defect reactions. It was proposed by F. A. Kröger and H. J. Vink.
Schottky and Frenkel Defects
Schottky Pairs
A Schottky defect is an intrinsic point defect that creates vacancies on both the cation and anion sub-lattices. This defect occurs in ionic crystals when one positively charged cation and one negatively charged anion leave the lattice simultaneously, result...
@Johannes_B someone provided the spanish translations of the GHS statements so the next update is soon to come. May be too late to still get in TL2013, though
@Johannes_B no: I thought you meant the test files. Maybe the error was in there, too, I can't remember... quite possible that I copied the examples in the manual from there...
@cgnieder I'm not a chemist, but isn't a positively charged cation and a negatively charged anion both superfluous? AFAIK a cation is per definition positively charged and an anion per definition negatively charged, right?
@hugovdberg Actually I never used Kröger-Vink notation (haven't even heard fabout it until recently) which means I can't judge if does make sense/is useful/...
@cgnieder I saw your answer on Kröger-Vink-Notation and flagged it for moderator attention, such that it can be marked, that the question led to a new feature. Do you know how much rep. I need to mark it myself or is this reserved for guys carrying ♦ in their user name?
@Johannes_B ah ok, after reading a bit further I get the relative charges, although that's not at all clear from the paragraph on the Schottky effect, if you hadn't told me I'd still think it's superfluous over there
@hugovdberg I oncee heard a lecture, where a lot of KV was used. But i cannot find the pdfs anywhere. And my brain deleted everything but the metadata of the lecture. I know where it was, i know who it was, but i can't remember any contents :-/
@tohecz Not all Debian people are idiots; some of us do get carried away sometimes though. The actual policy only requires that we have the source code (that is, the preferred form for modification) and build tools, not that we actually rebuild things. I have no idea where bastien got the idea that rebuilding is actually required, not just a "best practice".
@SamB there does seem to be a lot of pushing in that direction, though, even if policy doesn't explicitly require it. I've noticed it too. E.g. data files in R.
well, there's also 4.3. Changes to the upstream sources, 4.14. Source package handling: `debian/README.source', and 7.8. Additional source packages used to build the binary - `Built-Using'
and of course the copyright file ...
but considering the texlive packaging isn't built all-the-way-upstream tarballs anyway, I guess only README.source and copyright are really relevant there
