Please dont take this seriously guys its just a dumb meme I haven't written a single line of code in half of these languages
Latex: Problem -->
\def\please@#1#2#3#4{\e@kill#2#3{\me#1}#4@now}-->Accurate. LaTeX is great, it makes you feel like you have superpowers compared to "office suite"-style software. But every once in a while you just run into some bullshit that feels like it's stuck in 1985 and it completely breaks your flow. I remember wanting to make a
longtablewhere text in the "date" column would be rotated by 90 degrees to leave more horizontal room for the other columns. It took me tworotateboxes, aphantom, avspace, ahspaceand 40 minutes of my life to get the alignment right. Would probably have taken a duckduckgo search and three clicks in Libreoffice.btw what do you think about typst?
i only used it for simple stuff so far but it seems pretty fun and easy to use
Never heard of it before, but might give it a try at some point. From the website, it seems like something halfway in between LaTeX and Markdown? Sounds exactly like what I need at times, tbh.
yeah it's perfect for taking notes and stuff
My two cents, after years of Markdown (and md to PDF solutions) and LaTeX and a full two years of trying to commit to bashing my head against Word for work purposes, I'm really enjoying Typst. It didn't take long to convert my themes, having docs I can import which are basically just variables to share across documents in a folder has been really helpful. Haven't gone too deep into it but I'm excited to give it a deeper test run over the next little bit.
