VS Code has been making progress to support Jupyter notebooks (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/python/jupyter-support), but it's not quite there yet. Code completion works, but other features such as user snippets are missing, and it can be quite laggy. Apparently that's because the VS Code team has to reimplement a lot of stuff for Jupyter specifically (compared to adding support for Rust or Go with a language server).

The IEEE paywalled version (https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/iel5/8013/5968077/05968086.pdf) has a different format with more accurate references.

I like Semantic Scholar: https://www.semanticscholar.org

That's nice, but I feel that it vanishes after some time, so I would have to come back to the same museum to recharge regularly.

Another great local-first wiki tool is Obsidian (https://obsidian.md/). Each page is just a markdown file in a dedicated folder. They have backlinks and a bunch of plugins.

I'm curious about how you integrated spaced repetition and exercises to your personal wiki. What tools are you using?

Donations, according to the creators of Funkwhale.

Some comments here are making assumptions about the motivations/ethical principles of the developers, but how about reading directly what they say?

It turns out that they've been thinking quite a lot about this problem: https://agate.blue/blog/2018/05/11/funkwhale-content-monetiz...

reimbar | 5 years ago | on: Ask HN: What does ArXiv's logo mean?

Thank you, I somehow missed that link. For reference: the crossbones refer to the "xxx" in the name of the original server (xxx.lanl. gov). The smiley and the green background don't seem to have any specific meaning though.
