    Dollar signs are used to delineate MathJax equations. If you're not
    intentionally using MathJax (or Katex), disable it under
    Preferences->Style.

    Responsibility without conviction is amorally pragmatic and unengaging;
    conviction without responsibility is impotent. Leadership requires both
    conviction and responsibility to show the way forward and make a
    difference.
