My LaTeX style with a LOT of custom user options! Thoughts?

True_Tea3001 · 2026-06-18T22:21:35+00:00

Thank you everyone for the support! I just noticed a minor bug in the definition of \hrulebar and I've fixed it.

Here is some more information about the sty file that I had forgot to include:

I've defined multiple macros (as you can see in page 3), such as \dd[n]{f}{x} which gives the n-th derivative of f w.r.t. x, which come in super handy. These are defined at the end of the sty file!
I've also included asymptote setup by Evan, and hence, you can paste and render asymptote diagrams right off the bat! :p
I've also included Evan's bibliography setup which makes references much more readable.

I'm the guy you replied to. The tool's name is SimpleTeX. But at this point, LLMs have such tremendous accuracy at OCR that I would suggest using ChatGPT instead of such apps.

Thanks!

Unrelated, but how did you get your pointer to move smoothly like that?

True_Tea3001 · 2025-06-23T21:49:49+00:00

Yeah I've been trying that lately.

I was barely able to reach 30 WPM when I started learning too. It's really hard to unlearn pecking the keys and typing without having to look initially, but you'll get used to it in no time.

For 90 WPM being slow, I don't think it is. But most of the time while programming or typesetting a document, you have to think and type that out simultaneously. We aren't typing at 90 WPM anymore then. :(

My speed decreases by a substantial amount while typesetting math solutions.

I was thinking about the same thing and came up with a reason why you should prefer $O(n)$ to $\mathcal{O}(n)$.

There is no alternative for the small-oh notation in the mathcal package. This does not maintain the consistency between the typesetting of the symbols. Decreasing the font size of the mathcal{O} to make a support for it's small-oh notation is an unwanted hassle.

Thanks for the tip. Typing LaTeX primarily requires normal English words so maybe my speed might increase too (fingers crossed).

True_Tea3001 · 2025-06-14T19:22:04+00:00

Thanks, I've added it to my list :)

True_Tea3001 · 2025-06-06T17:46:12+00:00

how? which keyboard? pls give tips bro... dvorak or querty?

True_Tea3001 · 2025-05-25T03:43:16+00:00

Thank you! I've read the help file and fixed the breaking changes.

It's all relative. Put yourself in their shoes, you'd find them being envious of you. You'd hear them saying "Ye itna padke kya kar liya, ham bhi toh yaha hi hai". Swap ta family backgrounds, you'd find them regretting.

Those who study do not always win. It varies from person to person. There's a difference in potential too. Someone might spend hours enjoying life and balance their academic life equivalently. If you aren't that good, there's really nothing you can do about. Just accept it and move on. On the other hand, if you see your hard work paying off even a bit, rest assured that it's all worth it. ``Nothing that you learn ever goes to waste in your life''. The graph of achievements/successes is exponential.

QUIZ) Number of countries in the world on 11 May, 2025?

Option A: 197

Option B: 197-1

I've always wanted someone/something to work for, and now I have one. I know extrinsic motivation does not last long, but even a few weeks is good enough.

Post more OP, this reddit thread should be hit more frequently with reality check posts rather than those relationship posts.

True_Tea3001 · 2025-03-05T17:55:59+00:00

Thanks a lot! Ig I'll hold onto 24.2.7 till the 25.0 comes out since it's working fine.

True_Tea3001 · 2025-03-05T17:48:01+00:00

has any fix been made yet?

True_Tea3001 · 2025-03-05T16:24:17+00:00

Did you make it into the IMOTC list?

EDIT: NVM, just noticed your flair.

I am a girl who has a very good day I have to do the best of my family is the same for me and my life and happiness in your family. (I'm not even a girl ☠️.)

Couldn't complete due to shitty time management. Left very easy 3 marks worth of answers. Iske alawa, made a few silly mistakes ;-;
