random_walker Software companies can be breathtakingly clueless when there's a layer of indirection between them and their users. Everyone who's suffered through Blackboard will have the same reaction to this: try having less functionality! edscoop.com/how-canvas-cam… pic.twitter.com/CQ7r1nfP64

Puettmann_Bonn 43% der -Anhänger nennen den "Handlungsbedarf beim Klimaschutz" (sehr) groß, die der anderen Parteien zwischen 99% (Grüne) und 79% (Union). Zeigt einerseits wieder die Isolation der Rechtsausgeflippten, andererseits ihre Zerrissenheit in Sachfragen jenseits ihrer Feindbilder.

emilymbender Hey friends: I think I've read somewhere that "genetic" is dispreferred when talking about relationships between languages. Is that so? What's better? What should I read?

aclanthology (For papers with 3+ authors, use "etal" for the second author).

aclanthology Our keys are reasonable semantic (author1last-author2last-year-firstword) so you may be able to guess them. In testing, Overleaf won't tab-complete all keys, but there is no slowdown.

aclanthology For ease of citation, and to save yourself some time, you can download the entire Anthology bibtex (aclweb.org/anthology/anth… [24 MB]) and import it into your Overleaf document. Then point to it with

\bibliography{anthology,acl2019}

and you can instantly cite anything.
