For Tolkien's work, there is the twelve volume "The Complete History of Middle Earth" which is about as inside baseball as you can get for Tolkien.

I'd replace HoME with Parma Eldalamberon, Vinyar Tengwar and other journals publishing his early materials here.

Recommending Italo Calvino's Six Memos for the Next Millennium, the lectures he has been preparing shortly before his death.

Not an assembly guide for a work of literature, but it'll help your own process if it's already ongoing and you want to improve.

The lectures also have some comments on what Calvino himself was doing here and there and why.

If you were an author here, how would you approach writing alt texts for this article?

Maybe alt texts aren't the way to accessibility.

One upside of visual LLMs is that the user can prompt them, effectively interrogating the picture (but good luck debugging occasional nvidia/amd driver issues breaking the inference engine without using your sight).

I wonder how screen readers handle complex TikZ/PGF diagrams (converted to HTML or not, they aren't very accessible). Multimodal LLMs?

Both work very well for the entire journey there and back. I use the first I get my hands on (typically scale armour) and upgrade it to +8. But if it's plate armour, you might have to start using it before gaining the necessary strength, so be ready to spend more time and food on a few levels in the prison area.

The Phoebus cartel strikes again!

Because we have tons of ground-level sensors, but not a lot in the upper layers of the atmosphere, I think?

Why is this important? Weather processes are usually modelled as a set of differential equations, and you want to know the border conditions in order to solve them and obtain the state of the entire atmosphere. The atmosphere has two boundaries: the lower, which is the planet's surface, and the upper, which is where the atmosphere ends. And since we don't seem to have a lot of data from the upper layers, it reduces the quality of all predictions.

This is not to say that Jung wasn't a genius. Jung was THE BOMB DIGGIDITY (which, by the way, I wish was an official term in the Oxford dictionary).

If they love Jung so much (which I agree they should because Jung was amaaaaazing), why don't they honor him by using the spelling he actually used?

Love etymological articles with unreliable narrators.

It would. But it's a good option when you have computationally heavy tasks and communication is relatively light.

TOTP can be backed up and used on several devices at least.

Once configured, Tor Hidden Services also just work (you may need to use some fresh bridges in certain countries if ISPs block Tor there though). You don't have to trust any specific third party in this case.

If config prompt = system prompt, its hijacking works more often than not. The creators of a prompt injection game (https://tensortrust.ai/) have discovered that system/user roles don't matter too much in determining the final behaviour: see appendix H in https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.01011.
