hmmmm

@PauloCereda Between ducks and humans is even more

@CarLaTeX it's all in the colour

@CarLaTeX oh

@DavidCarlisle ooh

@HenriMenke, just saw you comment at github.com/pgf-tikz/pgf/issues/824

@HenriMenke, I'd missed the previous suggestion. I'll check, but I'm not sure if I understand the suggestion.

@cis indeed, that's what I meant :)

@Skillmonlikestopanswers.xyz /duck hug

@PauloCereda /rabbit hug

@Skillmonlikestopanswers.xyz aww <3

<3

@PauloCereda feeding the hungry a worthwhile thing

@DavidCarlisle not related to the aforementioned picture, right?

Is there a way to prevent \begin{equation} from starting on a new line?

Other than inline math that is

@kauray er no that's the whole point of it: to make an offset displayed equation. Use xxx $a=b$ zzz for inline math

okay, then can i label an inline math?

@kauray isn't "no new line" just another way of saying "in( the same )line" ?

@DavidCarlisle lol yes

@kauray $a=b$ \refstepcounter{equation} (\theequation)\label{zzz} ....

\refstepcounter{equation} this probably continues with the equation counter?

@kauray or more commonly do something like \begin{itemize} \item \label{zzzz} $1=2$ ...... \ref{zzzz}

@kauray yes, or as I say in the following comment use the itemize counter

(\theequation) what does this part do?

@kauray prints the equation number, (7) or whatever

@wtsnjp oh thanks, I'll add

@DavidCarlisle oh thats cool

@wtsnjp installed thanks: learnlatex.org/ja/language-01

@DavidCarlisle Thank you! Everything looks good!

@wtsnjp when we started this a couple of months ago none of those links would have worked, now all three work on overleaf and the luatex one works on latexonline, I hope we'll get platex and uplatex working in latexonline before long:-)

@barbarabeeton did you have the opportunity to check the new pdfcrop version?

@UlrikeFischer -- Not yet. I'll try now. (I have to download the new pdfcrop where it won't disable access to the "production" version. Can you remind me where to retrieve it, please?)

@barbarabeeton it is here: github.com/ho-tex/pdfcrop. Probably you will have to replace the original pl-script for tests. putting it in a local texmf imho don't work (at least it normally doesn't work for me).

@UlrikeFischer The IoT has plans for deployment of TeX-related content, but it's a secret. :)

@PauloCereda tell more ;-)

@PauloCereda if we throw you some bread crumbs you'll probably reveal the secret

@UlrikeFischer ooh :)

@DavidCarlisle ooh food

@DavidCarlisle but @barbarabeeton told me bread is bad for ducks

@PauloCereda doesn't matter much if they are going to be eaten anyway

@DavidCarlisle oh no

@PauloCereda Auntie says bread is OK as long as you mix it with other things bbc.com/news/newsbeat-50087990

@samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz ooh Nutella

@PauloCereda Keep it away from pizza!

@samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz oh

@PauloCereda -- No. Dried corn kernels, thawed frozen peas, things like that. Not just dried bread crusts. Not Nutella -- save that for yourself (when you're pretending to not be a duck), but not on pizza.

@barbarabeeton oh

@barbarabeeton <3

Almost palindrome :-)

@Rmano yay!

@Rmano -- The only thing to be objected to (which surely @DavidCarlisle will do) is the position of the comma.

@barbarabeeton we could blame @JosephWright for siunitx :)

@PauloCereda -- More likely blame "Western" tradition for subdividing strings of numbers into thousands.

@barbarabeeton I think Ada had the option to use _ as thousand separators when defining big numbers...

@PauloCereda -- I don't know Ada, but comma, period, and a small space are definitely used. The important point is, the break is always at the thousands. Maybe the Romans had something to do with it, since M is an important unit. (I'll have to look up older number systems sometime.)

@barbarabeeton ooh cool!

@barbarabeeton Yep, this is why I put there "almost"...

@PauloCereda not only Ada, and not only in the past... python.org/dev/peps/pep-0515
