The date is up to the Masters of the Club(tm) (aka Club Cabal, or 
Clubal). A later date is fine by me.

 נושא: [Haifux] Who will come to a lecture about profile guidedoptimization
 in GCC?

 Hi all,

 I know this approach is extremely non standard, and that Haifux is a
 club with no registration required attendance. I've been asked by some
 of the Haifux admins to give the lecture I'm about to give this Thursday
 at Herzelinux also at Haifux (August 10th is shaping out to be the
 date). I will gladly do so, but..

 Giving a Haifux lecture requires some effort on my part. Aside from
 everything else, this requires getting out of work at about 4 pm and
 drive to Haifa, as well as drive back after a day in which I both worked
 and drove and gave a lecture.

 All this I will gladly do, and enjoy it, except for one problem. More
 often then not, there are only about five people present to actually
 hear the lecture. It seems to be a lot of effort to achieve not much effect.

 I, on my part, am more than willing to leave work early, drive both
 direction and give the lecture, but you have to do one thing in return.
 Show up.

 So I am asking this publicly. Assuming I do give a lecture on profile
 guided optimization on August 10th, how many people intend to get out of
 whatever important other stuff they usually do and show up? Quite
 frankly, if it's about talking to an almost empty room, I don't think
 I'll bother.

 Also, please note that if 20 people say yes, and then I show up and
 there are only five people present, I will have to seriously consider
 whether I want to ever make the effort again, so please only say yes
 if you truly think you will actually be there.

 Again, I know this is extremely unorthodox, but I have been extremely
 busy of late, and while I love donating my time to pro-bono FOSS
 activities, I would like to know that someone is actually enjoying the
 fruits of my labor.

 If the show of hands is not significant, I would suggest that those
 people who are interested in hearing the lecture try to arrive to
 Herzelia this Thursday at 6:30pm. I know, it's a long drive, it requires
 leaving work early, and it means there is a long drive home afterwards.
 I know how it feels.

Sorry. Should have been Clubbal.

Insert appropriate joke about polymers and the refinement process.

Hell, this is latex. You can insert an inappropriate joke, if you like.

Hi,

When I wrote my master thesis, I used LyX instead of plain LaTeX. I was 
very satisfied with the results, and I highly recommend her to use it.


http://www.lyx.org


One  one hand LyX allows you to work at a high level (i.e. completely 
shielded from the intricacies of LaTeX), and on the other hand it allows 
you to insert low level LaTeX sequences if you want to.

Also there is the possibility to edit the generated LaTeX file.
