Oof. Man, you certainly fell into a shitshow. Good luck!

Say that you are from the US without saying that you are from the US.🤣

phd students right now... #wikipediadown

timeouts, but they are gone now. Maybe something network related. Thanks for the quick reply tho!

@aaronpk I'm integrating webmentions in my website, using webmentions.io and I might have crashed your server. Although I don't think I ddos-ed it with more than a 1000 requests. Anyway, if it was me, I am so sorry.

But you can drag & drop PDFs into your collection which achieves almost the same thing. Some quirks still require getting used to, but I'm happy so far. @zotero couldn't have timed this release any better. Also importing from Mendeley was a breeze. Bye bye @mendeley_com.

6.0 just came out of beta! https://www.zotero.org/blog/zotero-6/ I jumped into the deep end, and switched. @zotero 6.0 has a PDF reader, which was the main thing holding me back. Renaming, bibtex sync, deduplication all works out of the gate or with plugins. Only thing missing: watch folder

Maybe now is the time to switch to @zotero? The things missing from @mendeley_com Reference Manager can be handled with Zotero plugins afaik.

The @mendeley_com Reference Manager is a step backwards from Mendeley Desktop. Wrapping your web app in @electronjs and market it as "efficient, flexible and responsive" just isn't cutting it. Stuff missing at first glance:

• watched folders
• rename files
• BibTeX syncing

I have such a weak spot for communist architecture of that era.

Lightning Network is a peer-to-peer payment network that runs on top of the Bitcoin Blockchain. Because it runs on top of the Blockchain it is called a layer-two solution, which groups it together with other solutions that have this property of being built on top of a Blockchain. Layer One is the base layer, where the Blockchain lives. Because of the inherent properties of Layer One, it is impossible to process large amounts of transactions in that layer. The Bitcoin Blockchain can famously process a mere seven transactions per second on average. This constraint was the main impetus for the creation of Layer Two solutions. Lightning Network, being a Layer Two solution, allows for near instant transactions, that can easily scale to millions of transactions per second.

The latest vid from @bitluni's channel is a piece of art. You don't know it yet, but you want to know more about phased arrays. Go watch the vid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4uxC7ISd-c
