Oddbean new post about login | logout Kids have eaten, files are uploaded, now waiting for the LaTeX mess to compile on the journal submission site and then I can check and see what terrible mistakes I've made And then hit SUBMIT ...and then a couple of referees can check and see what terrible mistakes I've made!
SUBMITTED!! Time to go for a walk! (haha just kidding time to make dinner and then go take care of animals)
Nothing like an 8pm zoom meeting to celebrate paper submission (just kidding - I am totally brain dead. Hopefully someone else at the meeting is more awake than me...)
Nothing like a 7am meeting (on a Canadian holiday - thanks, UK) the morning after an 8pm Zoom meeting. Starting the day off right: I have to make 2 talks today that I'm presenting remotely at a conference Monday and Tuesday (along with attending a different online conference in a different time zone, and also my normal teaching load). I think I got this, but this is a bit much...
@e38e83a6 I just was checking via google-- who still uses LaTex? When I was still actively in the game, so to speak, most graduate students at least in engineering and science did. I worked with a lot of AFIT (Air Force Institute of Technology) graduates when an aerospace sort. They too all seemed quite versed in LaTex. But I'm old history, and was surprised to read and see from your example that science/engineering types still use it.
@7680dadf Pretty much everyone in astronomy uses it. I have quite a love/hate relationship with it.
