Hmm, true.
That saying in #english does exist, doesn't it.
Makes sense in that way.

Make no mistake however.
I see no #mystery here (hence the final part).

However, there are pitfalls in all #languages nonetheless.
I'm not surprised at the ability to flip meaning depending on #context ....

But rather annoyed by it.
Irregardless of #language, #country or #persona

Prefer using Island Of TeX #container -s for #ConTexT or #TeXLaTeX interactive development but don't want to type that much? You can simply create an alias, shell function or a simple script -- called e.g., `context` -- in your `$PATH`:

```
#! /bin/sh

podman run -v $PWD:$PWD:Z -w $PWD contextgarden/context:lmtx \
context "$@"
```

If, furthermore, your default environment is #toolbx ? Just hook the `podman` binary as well and fallback to `flatpak-spawn` within containers:

```
#! /bin/sh

if [ -f /run/.containerenv ]; then
flatpak-spawn --host podman "$@"
else
/usr/bin/podman "$@"
fi
```

You can now just run `context foo.mkiv` now outside or inside of your toolbx and it just works™

@Dr_Muesli

In what #context ?

@claralistensprechen3rd @HistoPol @DontMindMe #Context was missing, however.

Oh, the announced #ConTeXt update already hit the server.

Have a look at the manuals* lowlevel-grouping and lowlevel-macros WRT the mentioned possibilities for macros.
"lmt_potrace" will be in the luametafun manual, but is not yet.

* in texmf-context/doc/context/documents/general/manuals

Registrations for the #ConTeXt meeting in Sibřina near Prague are still open!

"A milieu is an environment
as it signifies for a particular entity or group of entities. A milieu is thus a perspectival field, a set of signifying elements or differentials unified by some form of access for a particular subject. When we colloquially refer to scales, we are referring to milieus, or scales stabilized as environments-­for. "

Jules Verne just described a mango in great detail, presumably because his readers had never seen a mango before.

The CAST 2023 line-up is now live. The theme this year is Context: Team -- how it takes a village to make software, and what testers can do to make the context visible and relevant at the right times.

Within the last week, there were several updates for #ConTeXt #LMTX.

Since Hans didn’t announce anything but promised in a few cases that problems were fixed “in next upload”, they apparently contained small fixes.

To make interesting stuff discoverable in the Fediverse, you have to boost much more generously than on the birdsite.

Just re-did our doorbell signs with #ConTeXt and I love the simplicity :)

```
\definefontfamily[mainface][ss][Arial]
\setupbodyfont[mainface, sans, 10pt]

\starttext
\framed
[width=5.5cm, height=1cm,
align={center,lohi}]
{Name1 \hspace[big] Name2\\
Name3}
\stoptext
```

Had to use Arial because our facility management is quite picky and removes custom bell signs, so it must look like the original one ^^'

Probably one of the best #ai model I tested so far. Really good for #roleplay, more logical than #wizard-vicuna. Can't wait for a 8K #context . :cat_typing:

The latest update for #ConTeXt #LMTX contains a parallel runner:

context --parallel test1.tex test2.tex test3.tex

context --parallel --pattern=test*.tex

context --parallellist myfile.cmd (filters context processing lines)

context --parallel test1.tex test2.tex test3.tex --terminal

Don’t get too excited, it’s not better than what e.g. a Makefile can do, except that it works on all platforms and doesn’t introduce dependencies. The general functionality of TeX is not parallelizable.

Switched servers so reposting an introduction

I am a #moral #psychologist (in @UL ) interested in the cognitive processes underlying our moral judgments. Also interested in #ecological #psychology and understanding #behaviour in #context. #openscience advocate and #rstats #r user.

Ouside of work I play #music including #guitar #harmonica and #songwriting. I enjoy #chess and #running (but have been inconsistent of late) and #walking
I also have 2 #cats

This may be the best reminder I’ve seen all year about how #failure is all about #context.

You’re either #laughing at how clumsy these #astronauts look, or…

You’re remembering that they’re walking on the fucking #moon after #nasa helped them blast out of earth’s orbit, travel 250,000 miles, and land safely - on the fucking moon! - in order to GET the chance to walk and fall down like this.

Yesterday’s update for #ConTeXt #LMTX doesn’t contain any new features but “only” fixes and streamlining e.g. to get rid of obsolete MkII code.

Hans announced to be in “page builder” mode now, we can expect new features in that regard.

If you are using a desktop PC and like to easily use different search engines, here's the occasional tip for two browser extensions.

1. #ContextSearch web-ext - Firefox (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/contextsearch-web-ext/) & Chromium: (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/contextsearch-web-ext/ddippghibegbgpjcaaijbacfhjjeafjh)

2. #SearchBar - Chromium (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/searchbar/fjefgkhmchopegjeicnblodnidbammed) (bit simpler; basically drilled down to the "Quick Menu" and the list when clicking on the extension icon of ContextSearch)
