  1. Já faz algum tempo que o #TeXmacs está rodando de maneira irritantemente lenta no meu desktop. Como ele roda bem no meu notebook, achei que fosse por estar usando a versão appimage no desktop. Mas acabei de instalar a versão regular aqui e continuou lenta. 🤡

  2. @eltonfc @althieme @nelsonsantana Tb tenho um caso de procrastinação com o Latex, mas nesse meio-tempo dois programas que me conquistaram foram o #zettlr e o #texmacs.

    Não fico mais sem usar o Zettlr, ele permite exportar inclusive sob templates do #latex.

    Quanto ao texmacs, ele é uma junçao de latex com emacs e permite editar diretamente no visual. E é bem leve.

  3. I wish typographical ambiguities such as f(x) and f*(x) were easier to clarify.

    With #texmacs, things can be clearer. Deep dive by TeXmacs developer at: texmacs.org/joris/semedit/seme

  4. A lower bound on energy requirements for direct air capture of #co2 via calcination is about 4 gigajoules per ton of carbon dioxide. reboil.com/texmacs/articles/00 #texmacs

    Made in response to a #Lemmy / #NYTimes discussion about Heirloom Carbon Technologies I felt needed some numbers. slrpnk.net/post/3855122

  5. I worked out a simple probability trick from high school while figuring out how long it'd take me to find a slime chunk in #Minecraft today. reboil.com/texmacs/articles/00 #texmacs

  6. Exercise for coders: modify the TeXmacs python plugin to allow to set the size of the image directly from the Python side, e.g. as argument of the ps_out command. See forum.texmacs.cn/t/change-the- #python #TeXmacs #exercise #coding #useful_and_fun.

  7. TeXmacs' blog
    texmacs.github.io/notes/docs/m
    is created in TeXmacs. It contains useful informations and user contributions are welcome. Send us a PR in GitHub (github.com/texmacs/notes) #blog #texmacs

  8. Write your CV with @gnu_texmacs. The documents are both fully structured and WYSIWYG, so you get both consistency across sections and easy tweaking the final result for edge-cases (e.g. spacing). Moreover you can export directly to HTML. github.com/texmacs/tm-forge/tr #CV #typesetting #TeXmacs

  9. @gnu_texmacs This book has been invaluable for discovering various aspects of #TeXmacs.

  10. A more complex picture drawn inside TeXmacs with the embedded graphics editor. #graphics #typesetting #math #editor #texmacs

  11. TeXmacs care a lot about homoglyphs. And you get even several kinds of invisible things. :) #typography #TeXmacs #mathematics #semantic-editing

  12. Found #TeXmacs because I was looking for an #Octave environment like #Jupyter and honestly it's pretty cool. I'd love not having to run a browser to get Jupyter's functionality.
    Sadly TeXmacs seems kinda buggy and now it thinks my Octave session is Scheme? But gosh, it has potential.

  13. @koherecoWatchdog @bsmall2 While this is true, usually only a fraction of students will go on to publish articles in such journals.

    Also, there's lots of other software that students might need later on in their careers (R, git, Python, etc.), but that doesn't mean they should be taught all of these.

    I would go with #markdown or #texmacs for undergraduate students.

  14. @anghenfil You could give #texmacs a try (not based on TeX, despite the name).

  15. @boud @dasaptaerwin
    "Lack of uploading #LaTeX source is a weakness"

    Similarly, allowing **only** LaTeX source is also a weakness.

    If you write documents in anything but LaTeX (I use #TeXmacs, which is not LaTeX), your only choice on ArXiV is to submit a PDF.
