I initially thought the same thing. But then I considered that many of the theoreticians probably write their papers in LaTeX.

- dllthomas 12y agoI wouldn't generally call that programming.
- theonewolf 12y agoBut it does involve command-line bullshittery which is more what the article is about. The article isn't bemoaning the state of programming languages or their tooling necessarily---more all the steps to get a programming language toolchain off-the-ground and working (like an Android dev environment etc. or a cross-compiling environment).
- dllthomas 12y agoCertainly the case. My comment was an aside directed at its parent, not deeply relevant to the article itself.
