You could use a 10 finger type trainer program. They usually show statistics which letters problematic. (more) |

For me personally, this question lacks the information, if the apps suggested in the various reddit threads solved their problem. (more) |

@#61308 From the linked accounts on reddit and the duplicate on math.cd I very much doubt that this is a new user. (more) |

Do all your quotes contribute anything to the question? They just read like a rant. Please also don't repost the exact same question you've already asked somewhere else, that's not good for the SEO of Codidact. Instead tailor your question to the site you post on. (more) |

This might or might not be the case, but your original question and the answer might nevertheless be useful for other users and a new question would give you the opportunity to clearly explain your situation without any cost or disadvantages for you. (more) |

I'm not a SME for data bases, but without the constrain that you want to move your DB, you would not have to be concerned about a client writing to the database after dump is done, would you? So this additional constrain of yours seems to change the situation. (more) |

@#64628 Thanks for providing more information to clarify your situation! However your edit changed the premise of your question quite a bit and the answer you already got no longer fits your question.
Can you please roll-back your edit and instead ask a new follow-up question including the new in... (more) |

Not really a solution for your problem, but to temporarily speed up the process while one is out and about, one could use the tips from https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/blob/master/docs/INSTALL.md#special-cases-options , in particular only cloning the branches one currently needs and only c...

I would tag them with two tags, one for the application and a separate tag for the operating system.

About your comment about overleaf: I suggest to redirect LaTeX questions to Codidact's sister project TopAnswers.

Can you please add your operating system?

I don't know if your question as asked is possible or not, but I think there is a good chance that your manual workflow can be simplified drastically. Therefore I'd like to see a test image.

@#8049 Nice idea! As far as I can tell Rstudio uses an absolute path, but it turns out this path can be customised in `.Rprofile` via `Sys.setenv(RSTUDIO_PANDOC="/path/to/some/folder/")`, so I could point it to a wrapper script which adds the verbose option to the call. If you would like to write an ... (more) |

"Users here may not control whether later other websites cross post them" this would be true for sites which automatically scrap other sites, but this hardly applies if you copy your posts to other sites like reddit or the teamviewer forum.
