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
#english #mystery #languages #context #language #country #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™
#container #context #texlatex #toolbx
@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. "
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.

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 ^^'
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.

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)
