MathJax or KaTeX? 11 3

decision-problem parsing

4 I had a look at KaTeX and I'm convinced that it is *plenty* powerful for our needs. The improved rendering speed is nice too.

3 I tried out some math expressions from my own SE posts. It looks like ~~some of the features are not correctly working,~~ and some are visually not pleasing to read.

Hola, everyone

LearningFTW

hello

Monica

(Oh, and nothing in the agreement would preclude that statement, despite the comments from some sore winners.)

Monica replying to Adám

(Sorry not really a reply but this seems the only way to ping you.)  Thanks for that MSE answer -- I appreciate the support.

Hi Andrew

Anonymous 2039

I'm Andrew from cgcc. I'm stopping here

Anonymous 2039

Hey there I guess

user replying to Razetime

Let me try that out.

Razetime replying to user

I don't see any way to do so, but you might be able to do it with the search bar.

user

Is it possible to sort questions/answers by date and number of stars?

Jack Douglas replying to topnush

Hi :)

wizzwizz4 replying to topnush

Hello!

topnush

hi all

Jack Douglas replying to wizzwizz4

Yes I wouldn't expect it to do so because I edited directly on the database to permanently redact so it's not visible in the history either — I'm not particularly worried if other people see it too, as long as it's people who actually know me, so I think I'm safe :)

wizzwizz4 replying to Jack Douglas

Thanks. That addresses my concerns. (By the way, your email address didn't black out for me until I refreshed the page; that *might* have been coincidental timing, but  it might also be a bug.)

wizzwizz4 replying to Jack Douglas

I've sent you an email.

wizzwizz4 replying to Jack Douglas

Got it.

Jack Douglas

if you let me know when you've got that down I'll blot it out

Jack Douglas replying to wizzwizz4

can you email ████@███████████████████████

wizzwizz4 replying to Jack Douglas

I'm not on Twitter. I do have a Fediverse account, but apart from that no social media.

Jack Douglas

or I could create a private room here on TA we could chat in

Jack Douglas replying to wizzwizz4

are you on Twitter? otherwise my email is faily easy to find online (or if you can't I'll post it in here and then delete the message)

wizzwizz4 replying to Jack Douglas

How do I do that?

Jack Douglas

@wizzwizz4 Can you DM me so we can discuss — as you say the legal bits are complicated by local variations

wizzwizz4 replying to Jack Douglas

If they're above the age for their member state's GDPR implementation (e.g. 13 for the UK), is that okay?

wizzwizz4

I wrote up my reasons for thinking the GDPR said that, but it was long.

wizzwizz4

I did some reading of the GDPR, and whilst I'm **not** a lawyer, I'm fairly sure that, for TopAnswers, an “if I am under 16, I have parental consent to create this account” checkbox (or, perhaps, piece of text) should be enough to comply – if even that is necessary.  
My vague recollections of [somebody else talking about COPPA](https://meta.stackexchange.com/a/338076) say that, since the site isn't attractive to children, a “Don't ask, don't tell” policy would work.

wizzwizz4 replying to Jack Douglas

Some of them are not. If I stop them posting it, would that be okay?

Jack Douglas

e.g. in comments or posts — anything that can identify a person makes everything they post PII

Jack Douglas

although we don't collect PII, we can't stop people posting it

Jack Douglas replying to wizzwizz4

Totally fine if they are 16 or over

wizzwizz4

Obviously they wouldn't be sharing PII – TopAnswers' authentication system makes this unnecessary – so there shouldn't be any legal trouble; I just don't want a repeat of [Eternal September](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_September).

wizzwizz4

I'm planning to use TopAnswers material in a programming club, which might result in a dozen or so new users (many children). Is this okay?

topnush

thanks!

Adám replying to topnush

Click [Post] then click the post type drop down.

topnush

how can I see a list of post types?

topnush replying to Adám

oh I see. I didn't know about post types

Adám replying to topnush

No, it is a post type.

topnush

I don't see a fastest-code/algorithm tag

Adám replying to Jack Douglas

Sure, but it doesn't really look that that's an intrinsic part. Maybe time for a site name change?

Adám replying to topnush

If phrased as a competition or as asking for tips to implement algorithmically fast code, then yes.

topnush

is that on topic?

topnush

what about a question like https://cs.stackexchange.com/questions/132144/edit-distance-where-a-substitution-only-costs-the-first-time ?
