#OpenOffice vs #LibreOffice vs ??

I've been using Google Docs for composing and managing resumes and cover letters. It's quick and easy to edit, but I don't love the feel of the finished product. #LaTeX gives me a ton of control, but adds more friction during revisions.

What are you going with for word processing these days?

I'm reading your enthousiasm and wonder if I could ask for some advice on where to start learning #emacs? I intend to use it mainly for #LaTeX work, which I "know" for 25 years now. I've been told about #Spacemacs but I found it very confusing. I've seen interesting things with #orgmode too.

Querida fedigente buena: ando atascado en mi profundo desconocimiento del #LaTeX porque por mucho que lo intento no consigo que el texto de un paper que va para un libro de actas de un congreso se adapte a la plantilla bien: siempre me salen las referencias bibliográficas con una interrogación en vez de el número que debería. ¿Alguien tiene habilidad y un ratillo para echarme una mano? Muchísimas gracias, de verdad. (No vengáis todes, con una persona me vale...)
fragmento del texto maquetado en LaTeX en el que las referencias entre corchetes aparecen con un signo de interrogación. El texto dice: Various studies conducted on the professional climate for LGBTQIA+ individuals in physics, chemistry, or astronomy (such as those conducted in the USA by the American Physical Society [?] or in the UK by the Institute of Physics, Royal Astronomical Society and Royal Society of Chemistry [?]) reveal realities that can be considered discriminatory

That's impressive and useful! 👌
May I ask if there is an extension for #LaTeX #equations integration ? 🔍👀
#latex #equations

love the csv-import, much better than excels kind of import. formula editing and syntax (comparing to #LaTex​) bit confusing and not that intuitive; would love to see better integration, but works very well. Thanks!

The Fallout series is absolutely great, it has incredibly elaborate details and the actors are amazing.

However, if the internet creeps already have the need to "beautify" the main character, then they should have carried it through to the end.

(Yes, I'm the one on the most right side of the picture.)

Be sure to check your kid's candy this year! I found an "Underfull \vbox (badness 666)" in a pack of m\&m's! #LaTeX #CheckYourCandy

I love #Libreoffice for a number of reasons:
Because it is completely #FreeSoftware.
Because I don't have to pay for its full version.
Because it is no Cloud stuff.
Because it is fully GDPR-compliant, while MSh*it isn't.
Because it is simpler to use LibreOffice than doing everything in #LaTex.
The #LibreOffice suite is one of my most important tools since my school days. You helped me to reach university.

I just had whatever the opposite of 'future shock' is - I stumbled upon a telescope proposal from 2001 and I wondered if the #latex would compile - of course it did, and the proposal looked exactly as it should have.

In related news, I wrote my thesis in Word 98 and the next version refused to open one of my chapters for no obvious reason.

Plain text and openly documented image formats are definitely the way to future proof your work.... #astrodon #opensource #openscience #TeXLaTeX

I've been using #AnnotatedEquations in my recent papers. I think it really adds to the readability and understanding of the math.

Here are some examples. It uses #tikz in #latex.

Let me know if you like it. Happy for any feedback.

An annotated equation in Latex. The equation: Pro[X(.) \in S] <= e^epsilon . Pr[X(.) \in S] The first X(.) is in a red box and a red arrow points to it with the annotation, "system state" on top of the arrow. The first S is in a blue box and a blue arrow points to it (from below) with the annotation, "S \subset Range (X)" on the arrow.
Another annotated equation: Pr[R(Tau_i, j) \in S] <= e^epsilon . Pr[R(Tau'_j, j') \in S] Both Tau's are in red boxes and have a (bidirectional) red arrow pointing to each other and the annotation "Tau_i, Tau'_i \in Gamma, the set of Tasks" on top of the arrow. Both j's are in blue boxes and have a blue bidirectional arrow pointing to each other (below the equation) with the annotation "j, j' \in N" under the arrow.
An annotated equation surrounded by text. The equation: Lap(x | mu, b) = (1/2b)exp(-|x-mu|/b) The first "mu" is in a red box and a red arrow points to it from the top with the annotation, "location parameter, mean" on top of the arrow. the first "b" is in a blue box with a blue arrow pointing to it from below with the annotation, "b>0, scale parameter" on the arrow. We see an equation number (3) to the right of the equation.
Two annotated equations side by side. Left equation: N_i = Q_p(t_{j+1} - t_j | for all j) Q_p and for all j are in red boxes. t_{j+1} is in a blue box and t_j is in a brown box. There is a long, red curly brace (sideways, pointing down) on top of the entire RHS of the equation with the annotation, "some annotation about the entire equation here". A blue arrow points to "t_{j+1}" from below with the annotation, "property of (j+1)^th item. A brown arrow points to "t_j" from the bottom right with the annotation, "j^th item" on the arrow. The equation on the right: X_i = 1/(Sigma{i=1}N Sigma{j=1}M_i(l^j_i/l^max)) N is in a purple box and we see a purple arrow pointing to it with the annotation, "number of objects" on top of the arrow. M_i is in a blue box with a blue arrow pointing to it with the annotation, "number of other objects" on the arrow. l^j_i is in a brown box with a brown arrow pointing to it and the annotation, "size of j^th service" on the arrow while l^max is in a green box and a green arrow pointing to it (from below) with the annotation, "maximum obj size" on the arrow.
