It is from 2012, but I really like the phrase "Tab Purgatory"
"It has also replaced bookmarks and for me, and in some cases, has allowed me to free things from Tab Purgatory (where a tab is indefinitely open, always to be read 'later')."

"Both engineers and computational scientists alike will benefit greatly from having a standard test set for Initial Value Problems (IVPs) which includes documentation of the test problems, experimental results from a number of proven solvers, and Fortran subroutines providing a common interface to the defining problem functions. Engineers will be able to see at a glance which methods will be most effective for their class of problems. Researchers will be able to compare their new methods with the results of existing ones without incurring additional programming workload; they will have a reference with which their colleagues are familiar. This test set tries to fulfill these demands and tries to set a standard for IVP solver testing."

"KM3NeT is a research infrastructure housing the next generation neutrino telescopes. Once completed, the telescopes will have detector volumes between megaton and several cubic kilometres of clear sea water. Located in the deepest seas of the Mediterranean, KM3NeT will open a new window on our Universe, but also contribute to the research of the properties of the elusive neutrino particles. With the ARCA telescope, KM3NeT scientists will search for neutrinos from distant astrophysical sources such as supernovae, gamma ray bursters or colliding stars. The ORCA telescope is the instrument for KM3NeT scientists studying neutrino properties exploiting neutrinos generated in the Earth's atmosphere. Arrays of thousands of optical sensors will detect the faint light in the deep sea from charged particles originating from collisions of the neutrinos and the Earth. The facility will also house instrumentation for Earth and Sea sciences for long-term and on-line monitoring of the deep sea environment and the sea bottom at depth of several kilometers."

I found this when I searched for documentation about configuring Apache.

release7.8.03.346.g1915.dirty after the first paragraph is rendered incorrectly as release_{7.8.03.346.g1915.dirty}.
This can be fixed by
#+OPTION ^:{}
will yield correctly rendered underscore characters.
#+begin_quote [[info:org#Export settings]]
‘^:’
    Toggle TeX-like syntax for sub- and superscripts.  If you write
    "^:{}", ‘a_{b}’ will be interpreted, but the simple ‘a_b’ will be
    left as it is (‘org-export-with-sub-superscripts’).

Org-noter’s purpose is to let you create notes that are kept in sync when you scroll through the document, but that are external to it - the notes themselves live in an Org-mode file. As such, this leverages the power of Org-mode (the notes may have outlines, latex fragments, babel, etc…) while acting like notes that are made inside the document. Also, taking notes is very simple: just press i and annotate away!

"We are a group focused on converging and working on pre-standardization of OCapN. OCapN stands for "Object Capability Network" and provides:

CapTP (Capability Transport Protocol) which is the heart of OCapN. This protocol allows for networked programming which, with the appropriate tooling, has the convenience of programming against "networked objects" which are little different from any other asynchronous programming in the host language.
A generalized "netlayer" interface and specifications of compatible implementations. OCapN's CapTP can be run over different "netlayer" implementations ranging from Tor Onion Services to IBC to I2P to libp2p to perhaps carrier pigeons with backpacks full of encrypted microsd cards.
A URI structure for addressing machines and specific objects on machines."
