In computing, the menu key (≣ Menu), or application key, is a key with the primary function to launch a context menu with the keyboard rather than with the usual right-mouse button. It was previously found on Microsoft Windows-oriented computer keyboards and was introduced in 1994, at the same time as the Windows logo key. The menu key was som...

I don't even have that key

legorhin Aug 5, 2026 12:14 PM general

some keyboards leave it off because its not very useful

legorhin Aug 5, 2026 12:15 PM general

or you could ask who uses scroll lock, meaning are you an Excel power user?

Polar_ Aug 5, 2026 12:17 PM general

I miss having a numpad, but id only use them for a single program.

Kribbles Aug 5, 2026 12:19 PM general

I use numpad for 2FA or typing in mh phone number/credit card number

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 5, 2026 12:24 PM general

Latex is the way you typeset if you are doing actual math in some way or another

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 5, 2026 12:25 PM general

most people who still use word, etc, have extensions to let you use latex/markdown stuff for equations

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 5, 2026 12:37 PM general

Like to play or for when you have to visualize what 623 is? I hate numpad notation. I completely understand it and its purpose, but theres an extra step to visualizing it that I find annoying.

I actually used wasd and numpad, it's a perfectly viable way to play!

I agree actually, its just a bit hitbox in my mind. Could probably get away with some fucked up binds like an extra up input n stuff

SyrenBell Aug 5, 2026 1:12 PM general

Polar sometimes you have to conform to society like a good little slave alright

I don't think he died?

Dolf is permanently attached to his chair

Ngl, I used a ph instead of an f on search, false alarm

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 5, 2026 11:41 PM general

I've never used Lean, and am sort of surprised I've not given it's apparently been around since 2013/2014

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 5, 2026 11:44 PM general

Interested if you or any of the other PHDs here like it

Kribbles Aug 5, 2026 11:48 PM general

Lean?

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 5, 2026 11:50 PM general

purp

Kribbles Aug 6, 2026 12:02 AM general

Ah, Lean and Coq are similar, no, I never did rigorous math in my phd.

legorhin Aug 6, 2026 12:18 AM general

when I am using a computer to do math I'll use symbolic tools like mathematica

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 6, 2026 12:18 AM general

I have no idea what Lean is

TinyBomby Aug 6, 2026 12:19 AM general

I've not used it, but I do know Lean

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 6, 2026 12:19 AM general

I googled this, I have heard of this, but I have never used it

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 6, 2026 12:20 AM general

I feel like Coq came up once or twice in textbooks (also never used it)

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 6, 2026 12:20 AM general

but never Lean, and I definitely confused mathlib for matlib when looking up wtf it was at first

legorhin Aug 6, 2026 12:24 AM general

I was trying to figure out PySym last week but its so annoying. Everything I struggled for hours to make it do worked immediately in Mathics3

heyo discord mobile visual update again, everything is square

I was curious to see pics, so I went to the Discord reddit

I forgot that the entire userbase for this app are neurotic tweens and ESLs

idk just a slight change, nothing big

legorhin Aug 6, 2026 11:14 AM general

EMACS must survive

Kribbles Aug 6, 2026 12:56 PM general

vi is on every computer, I never really see emacs on default machines

mint Aug 6, 2026 3:04 PM general

I'm sorry stallman for I must sin. Emacs is bloat. Emacs disrespects the most core unix principal "do one thing, do it well"
