You can make the descriptive / non-math text in LaTeX look better in math mode by using \text{} e.g. $T_\text{products}=...$!

Very cool, I made a very primitize plotter before that let you draw on the UV plane and project curves onto the surface (helpful for fundamental groups) / included a time parameter for homotopies. If you're looking for feature ideas I think those would be great! https://tobylam.xyz/3d-plotter

Copy and paste plaintext to read it nicely!

You can remove white-space from lines, manipulate new lines and add prefixes / suffixes as well.

It's supposed to give you the bare minimum tools to do 90% of what you want to do with plaintext, like converting text into markdown quotes, or processing chat records copied from WhatsApp or discord.

I do think that everyone should make some personalized version of this themselves though. I love plaintext and I believe with the right tools you can do so much just with it.

Any suggestions welcomed!

There have been various readers / reading modes for broader usage. See Unclutter @ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33718850

Should be fixed now? It seems that links inside iframes are generally not welcomed ("read.gov will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it."). Interesting bug. Thanks!

I feel like if I'm a parent I'd want to find quality stories to read to my children instead of AI-generated stuff. But it's kind of hard to find them via google (you'd pick up the animals not the moral), or rely on ChatGPT cuz they'll hallunciate the text of the fable. So it feels like there's a need for some manually annotated database (e.g. scrapped from Gutenberg).

I'd like to see something like this for New Yorker short stories as well. Like finding stories based on a mix of themes / locations / plot / setting etc
