Emanuele Viola is relatively famous in theoretical computer science, so he's definitely not a crank.
As far as TeX goes, Wordpress has a long way to go in terms of offering good native support for any TeX variant, so it's understandable that one might try to avoid it in that context.
- johnloeber 12y agoW/r/t/ TeX: Is it not possible to use the MathJax plugin on WP?
- j2kun 12y agoNot if it's hosted by wordpress (.wordpress.com) Source: I've been using Wordpress to blog about math for over three years and have had a small amount of (indirect) contact with the Wordpress devs. Apparently they are considering alternatives to their current setup which renders tex formulas to images.
- sytelus 12y agoI'm using LaTeX for Wordpress (https://wordpress.org/plugins/latex/ https://wordpress.org/plugins/latex/) and it seems to do the job. However I agree that it's pain in a to find proper plugin and set it up and even more so if you ever want to change to some other plugin. For a platform that is a major writing instrument, it's a pity to be in this state.
