And then you risk people making stupid decisions, which you have to fix later on, because you didn't attend the meeting. Sometimes it's not just about whether others think you should be there.

I fully agree! Can also recommend to everyone to take a similar course or use self-study material on the topic. Understanding the lowest layers makes you a better software engineer, as your mental model of a CPU/PC gets sharper.

PdfPig [1] is a (partial?) port of PdfBox, I haven't really tried it so far, due to the weak support for PDF creation. [1] https://github.com/UglyToad/PdfPig

The past week, I've implemented a Markdig renderer that outputs / renders into a Migradoc document, which can be converted to PDF. For the limited used case it works quite well and I'm currently looking into open sourcing it

Most of my research was directed at PDF creation and less at editing, so I'm not sure the list captures everything available. For example I somehow dismissed PdfPig [1] early on, because it's mostly for text extraction from PDFs,

You're welcome! Having played around with MigraDoc for the past few weeks, I do still recommend it, as long as you don't need more complex layouts. Here's a short and certainly incomplete list of limitations that I've ru

Just today I looked at LaTeX interop for C#, but it seems the TeX world is in its own bubble of commandline tools. Do you use any library or are you just calling the standard TeX CLI tools?

It is misleading in so far that XSLT is an independent standard [1] and isn't owned by Google, so they cannot "kill it", or rather they'd have to ask W3C to mark it as deprecated. What they can do is remove support for X

It seems the PDFSharp rabbit hole goes even deeper than I've realized! Latest MigraDoc & PDFSharp seem to have been updated and ported to .NET 6 after a lot of the forks happened, so it was unclear to me whether there's merits

Is the problem coffee or caffeine? I'm not the best at this either, but enough sleep really does wonders to focus. What also helps me with focus is the pomodoro technique in some form, basically setting myself a timer, within which I w

Except that the pen keeps failing a lot faster as the ink is depleted and the pen writes different whether it runs nearly dry, has to get the ink fully flowing again, or when there's plenty of ink and it flows smoothly.
