- ant6n 3y agoMaybe some people wanna focus on the work and not on the geek cred. (I need to write some thesis like thing soon, like 15 years after my masters thesis that was written in latex, and do I really want to bother setting latex up again and futz with templates and fight for correctly positioned figures, or just use Word and be done with it?)
- marcosdumay 3y ago> just use Word and be done with it? One don't "just" use word, and it's certainly never done with. Unless you found a room temperature superconductor and half the people will simply not care if you wrote it in a piece of paper (yet half will care... for some reason), you will have to spend all your time fixing formatting issues and keeping things on their correct state. I was stupid enough to write a paper in Word once. Given the choice, I will never repeat the mistake.

- ramraj07 3y agoI would have said latex gatekeepers are the worst, but now I know eMacs geeks so no. Or was it vim? Can never tell!
- robotresearcher 3y ago‘eMacs’? It’s LaTeX that has the self-conscious capitalization!
- astrange 3y agoThere was a thing called an eMac once, it wasn't a text editor though.
