@cfr Ouch, terribly sorry to hear. :( To be honest, little do I know about these affairs, but I am sure the struggle will be terrible for not only English citizens, but for Europe as a whole.
I heard the Parlament has the final word, is that correct?
@Johannes_B I wonder if the Brazilian government will provide free name tags for rats during the Olympic games, so they are not confused with capybaras.
@PauloCereda It isn't just the English! Wales voted to leave, too. Scotland and N. Ireland to remain. (Cardiff and London both voted remain.) It now seems very likely Scotland will leave the UK. It may also destroy the Irish peace process. But actually I'm most worried about what will happen in Europe, as well as Ireland. Britain be damned. (I live here, but I'd rather not any more.) I never considered myself British anyway.
@PauloCereda You know you can access their website? Very occasionally, there's something they won't let you view if you've got an international ip address, but that is pretty unusual. It might only apply to iplayer.
@PauloCereda I only ever really viewed their news, mind, and static content. I never tried to watch regular TV shows or whatever. Maybe that's different.
@AlanMunn And Carwyn Jones is right: the Valleys have voted against Labour more than they've voted for anything. Still, I'm deeply disappointed. Not surprised - these all are the places that swung towards UKIP at Labour's expense at the general election. But, really - UKIP?? They are mad. But they probably figure things can't get worse. I hope they are not proved too badly wrong.
@cfr Yes, Labour definitely has failed; the Trumpism here is being fueled by the same thing, and despite the fact that US Democrats are far to the right in the world sense, just as British Labour shifted right, so did the Democrats, and the Bernie support is the same discontent.
@cfr She lives in Vancouver, so it will be too late for us to talk tonight.
@PauloCereda Somehow soccer doesn't seem remotely important at the moment, I'm afraid.
@AlanMunn Oh, I see. Somebody you'll talk to tomorrow. Sorry. I'm a bit dazed. Neither Europe nor the UK has an especially peaceable record, historically. I don't like this at all... And people keep going on as if the main loss is a less favourable deal for city bankers. And they are surprised they lost?
fyi I posted the question tex.stackexchange.com/questions/316526/… I do not think it is lualatex. It also fails with pdflatex. I think it is just resource issue with tcolorbox but I am not really sure.
@PauloCereda The trouble is that people have unleashed forces they can't control. And what do they think is going to happen when people find out that it is not all the fault of the EU bureaucrats and 'foreigners'? I don't think they can put this genie back in the bottle now. I don't think they could have if remain had won, but this is worse, of course. There are interviewees who woke up today and said 'oh, shit!' even though they voted to leave yesterday. How many votes were just protests?
@cfr A friend of mine who is a staunch Bernie supporter is considering voting for Trump so as not to vote for Hillary. So I have no doubt that many of the votes were protest votes for sure.
@AlanMunn Yes. That's what I was thinking of when I said Ireland and Europe. The far right are gleeful and I'm not sure that the EU's response of punishing the UK to make an example is a good strategy.
@cfr There are at least two political candidates (literally, clowns) in Brazil who won elections just based on protest votes. Far worse than them getting the job, because of the way Brazilian electoral system works and the huge amount of votes they got, a lot of terrible people also got access as well.
@cfr Well for the moment, that's just EU leader talk; I suspect that when the negotiations start things may be a bit different. Because the EU can't really afford a big recession in the UK I don't think.
@AlanMunn They can't afford to play nice, either. If they play nice, that's a precedent and others are lining up to follow. Besides, what they actually do is only part of it. What they appear to want to do is another. If the UK is indicative then threatening calamity may be worse than useless as a dissuasion strategy. Look at the US. Do Trump's supporters care if what he says is true? The referendum here had almost nothing to do with facts because nobody who wanted truth believed either side.
@PauloCereda There seem to be the same trends in many places ... The far right just within Europe: Austria, Hungary, France, Germany, the Netherlands ... Some of these places are more resistant than others. The UK I think has little collective resistance. We are far too confident that we are tolerant and liberal. Even the people screaming 'get out!' at a reporter today will probably tell you they aren't racist ...
@AlanMunn Which is why I would like somebody to please suggest a suitable other planet I could move to. I'm prepared to deal with a strange climate, but would prefer air I can breathe, if possible.
@AlanMunn :-) Any plans to build a wall along the southern border at your neighbour's expense?
@AlanMunn I've never been to Canada, though I have seen it. (I had an interview somewhere on the border and they were worried the US might not let me back in.)
@cfr My favourite quote about the US/Canada border comes from Margaret Atwood: "[It's] the world's longest one-way mirror. We can see them, but they can see only themselves".
@michal.h21 thank you! That worked. I did not notice I was missing \special{t4ht+@File.. for the png. I see it there for svg. That is why svg files were being copied OK. This is great.
@Nasser well it's clear from the fragment you post you have a longtable \pagebreak in the wrong place, on line 13. how hard can it be to debug that by trying to remove the \pagebreak?
@Nasser tex error messages are really not complicated the first line shows \pagebreak ->.... unimportant details which tells you it's \pagebreak and l.13 on the last line tells you it's on line 13.

@JoelDuscha: And there's no clear 'answer' on this. All are nice, but some provide feature A, but are lacking feature B, others provide B but are short of A and C and ... whatever
@JoelDuscha: The only one currently under constant development is exsheets by our fellow user @clemens here (as far as I know concerning the development process)
@JoelDuscha \usepackage{alphalph} ;-)
@JoelDuscha: Ah, @JosephWright, one of the answers package authors is here ;-)
@ChristianHupfer funny package, but for me very useless ^^ exsheets is probably very nice, but I startet with answers duo to being described as "sophisticated"
@MathWanderer Well, LyX produces LaTeX code, and uses that to generate a PDF, so in a way your question doesn't have an answer. If you're asking whether it's better to use the LyX GUI than to write code directly, then that's a matter of personal preference.
@MathWanderer Well as others have said, it's partially a personal preference. One thing that I've learned about LyX is that it effectively hides the LaTeX underneath. If you are happy with the stuff it provides out of the box (and many are) and you like the idea of a roughly WSYWIG interface, then LyX might be the thing for you.
@MathWanderer But if you need to customize things, it gets trickier, and you will have to learn the LaTeX underneath anyway. Also, there's far more information on this site for LaTeX than for LyX.
@MathWanderer I used it once because a colleague was in trouble with and -- in the end, he learned to use LaTeX (not only by me, but a major portion of it). I don't use LyX, TeXMaker, TeXStudio, TeXWorks, ShareLaTeX and all this things
@MathWanderer LyX provides a lot of built-in functionality which incorporate specific packages and document classes from LaTeX. If you need to you things outside of what they have built in (which is quite substantial) this isn't very easy to do.
@MathWanderer Yes, this is MacTeX. If you didn't install it, you should probably get the latest version here.
@MathWanderer Also, I recommend the TeXShop editor. And BibDesk is fantastic.
@egreg didn't build one... (unlike others in the village I don't have a spare barn with welding equipment:-) we had a go on them later (since it was thunderstorms in the morning the track was somewhat muddy;-) Some pictures will be posted later (may take a while as have to get parental permissions or filter out pictures of children)
@Johannes_B I was all day well above 33; not bad when the bike is running, but at the Croatian border it was a pain. Slovenian police is very fussy at frontier checks. Happily there's no check at the border with Italy.
@MathWanderer Before you do, you should find out what year it is. If you're comfortable with the Terminal just type pdflatex --version and it should tell you which year of TeX Live you have. If it's 2016 then you don't need to download a new version. If it's 2015, you should have no troubles with it, but it's still worth downloading the newest version, since then you can get updates throughout the year.
@MathWanderer And there's no problem having more than one year installed on a machine. I have 3 years on my current laptop.
