I second all suggestions here. I'd also suggest "Software Receiver Design" by Johnson et al.

Are there any known ways to undo the compression? Assuming no clipping, the process should be reversible, right?

Do you know a good reference to learn more about this (quantizing weigths to 1.58 bits, and trit arithmetic)?

The compiler is open-source and can be run locally. You need an account if you want to use their web editor, which is nice (it shows error messages where they occur along with an explanation and link to docs, and also shows a real-time updated preview).

As for Latex vs Typst, as a language Typst is much better, compiles very quickly, and has sane error messages. However, Typst still has a few rough edges, and can't do everything you can with Latex + packages (yet).

I've been using Typst for most of my documents for a few months and I've been generally happy with it.

It is exhausting, but it can be fun. My motivation was to network during conferences. I ended up meeting interesting people, having good conversations, and enjoying myself more.

> You don't become more extroverted, but you can improve your social skills.

The way I did it is: I learned to _pretend_ to be extroverted. It works!

I have to use a Windows laptop for work; it was migrated to Windows 11 a few months ago. Win 11 is definitely, measurably worse than Win 10, at least in the configuration that my employer's IT forces on the machine. One example is that its UI is much slower (typing in the search box at normal speed often misses keystrokes, for instance -- never happened on Win 10).

> to each and every individual

Not to each one. I'm willing to pay more (within my means and within reason) if it pollutes less and/or produces less CO2.

I am healthy, and intend to remain so -- I wear an N95 in all indoor spaces.
