Weird behavior in date field

I'm trying to "trick" the date field in maketitle into allowing me an extra line to link to the latest version of my paper. I borrowed an example from here, and it works. However, when I try to edit it, I get weird behavior. I tried to just delete all the placeholder text and add my own, as follows:



documentclass[11pt]article 
usepackagepdfpages
usepackagehyperref
usepackagetitling

titleTitle
 authorMe

dateparboxlinewidthcentering
 todayendgrafmedskip
Please click colorbluehref[[link]]here for the latest version of this paper.

usepackagecaption

begindocument

maketitle
enddocument


(I have a real working link in lieu of [[link]]. Removing the href command altogether changes nothing) However, this gives me the following error:



! Argument of reserved@a has an extra }.


What does work, bizarrely enough, is just adding a "1" before "Please":



dateparboxlinewidthcentering
todayendgrafmedskip
1Please click colorbluehref[[link]]here for the latest version of this paper.



This compiles fine, although it gives me an extraneous "1" that I'd rather not have.



Does anyone know where this behavior is coming from?



Thanks!

Long meetings (6-7 hours a day): Being “babysat” by supervisor

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP .everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty margin-bottom:0; up vote 31 down vote favorite 4 I hold a PhD in mechanical engineering with a 7 year background in self-guided, self-paced research including 2 years as a graduate level course instructor and a subject matter expert for various engineering projects in a university setting in the United States. For the last 10-11 months, I am working in a research industry in France where my task is to debug C++ spaghetti code written over a period of several years by my current supervisor. It is a team of 2: just I and my supervisor. Diurnally, I am posed with a "bug of the day" to get out of this C++ code. My supervisor generally gives me about 15-30 minutes to solve it and then accosts me about whether or not the task is completed and then rinses and repeats this until the end of the day. Off-late, my supervisor has been holding 6-7 hour long "meetin

Confectionery

Image
Prepared foods made with a lot of sugar or other cabohydrates "Sweetmeat" redirects here. For the racehorse, see Sweetmeat (horse). Not to be confused with Sweetbread. This Kransekake is a traditional Scandinavian baker's confection. Confectionery is the art of making confections , which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates. Exact definitions are difficult. [1] In general, though, confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections. [2] Bakers' confectionery, also called flour confections , includes principally sweet pastries, cakes, and similar baked goods. Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar. In some cases, chocolate confections (confections made of chocolate) are treated as a separate category, as are sugar-free versions of
