Retired teacher of mathematics and English.

I live in Bielefeld Germany and am the full time carer of my disabled partner.
I am sorting out book shelves at home - so I can fit more in - and I found two of these. One I will give to someone. Which one would you choose to donate and which to keep?

Needed to write an equation (or eight) so just refreshed my knowledge of LaTeX and KaTeX

Which equations I am writing from these:

$$ \oint_S \overrightarrow{E} \cdot \hat{n} da = \frac{q_{enc}}{\epsilon _0} $$

and

$$ \nabla \cdot \overrightarrow{E} = \frac{\rho}{\epsilon _0} $$

Received a Clockwork Pi uConsole yesterday and have just set it up except I am waiting for the batteries which arrive on Wednesday so it is there to a power cable until then.

Just received a secondhand copy of a biography of Charles Ives and it came with someone else's tags in it. So hours of joy finding out why the previous owner put the tags in those locations.

I realise that I am reluctant to share even on here.

I was caught in the Facebook Cambridge Analytica data scraping when someone else allowed their profile to be scraped.
The "other place" became a cesspool - and toxic.

It may take time to trust again.

Deleted the app for the other place from my phone and tablets so I will feel a lot less tempted to lapse

I am starting a slow migration from the other place.
