@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M Is that a latex source? Do you want to have some comments on that?

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M How do you compile that?

Ahhh scratch that... you used xelatex....

Haha... that looks so funny, as I dont have the fonts that are required...

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

07:14

@Martin-マーチン Yeah, it's XeLaTeX alright.

Martin - マーチン

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M Why do you use $$ ... $$ in your document?

PH13

looks better?

Martin - マーチン

It's plain tex... comes with a lot of problems

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M Why don't you talk to me?

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M!!!

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M????

PH13

@Martin-マーチン you need more of this

Martin - マーチン

Yes probably

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M ಠ_ಠ

I WAS EATING BREAKFAST SHEESH.

@Martin-マーチン It's homework. It needz math mode.

Martin - マーチン

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M Why are you not using ctan.org/pkg/amsmath?

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Kpfonts loads amsmath.

It also loads amsfonts.

Martin - マーチン

Then you should use \begin{align}...\end{align} instead

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Hey, at least I read documentations.

Martin - マーチン

or one of the derivatives

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

07:40

@Martin-マーチン I know aligns are a necessity, but these just, couldn't be aligned.

They were scattered formulas all around.

Martin - マーチン

And don't use \rm that's tex syntax too with many unwanted sideeffects

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

@Martin-マーチン Like?

(I was in a hurry, \mathrm was too much to type for me)

Martin - マーチン

It completely overwrites any style you have

PH13

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M you're the scat(tered)man ʅ(◔౪◔ʅ)三(ʃ◔౪◔)ʃ

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

I have a plea not to touch any youtube links.

Martin - マーチン

07:43

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M use \begin{equation}...\end{equation} then

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

I SAID I WAS IN A HURRY.

Martin - マーチン

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

PH13

I LIKE YOUR RAGE MODE ٩(◕ั ∀◕ั๑٩)

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Typing all that, when TeXmaker breaks a line, doesn't work in a hurry.

Martin - マーチン

Well, well, well.... shortcuts are the way to doom....

PH13

07:48

I mean, look at all those curly signs ... stenography or sth like that ... no one can identify it

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Now you're talking my language @Mart.

@PH13 I didn't have time to give bling to my code.

How idiotic is 8 dollar signs in a single line?

But it's not so idiotic when you have thirty minutes to your class which is thirty minutes away.

PH13

the more $ the more ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ ?

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Not really.

It was a shortcut to make line breaks.

And just look at that; the arrows are inconsistent. I used \leadsto, \Rightarrow, \Longrightarrow, \longrightarrow etc.

Martin - マーチン

you can use `\\` for linebreaks

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

And @Mart I used {\it } to overwrite {\rm }.

@Martin-マーチン Its spacing was unfavorable.

Martin - マーチン

07:55

AaAAAAAAaaaaaaAAAaaaaAAAaaAAAaaAAAaaa why would you tell me such evil things?

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

To reason why and how messy my code is.

Martin - マーチン

I have to cry now

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Please do!

PH13

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M you feel ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ when others ༼ ಥ﹏لಥ ༽ ... eh? ಠ_ಠ

@Mart does MathJax support \verb?

Martin - マーチン

no

what would you need that for?

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Verbatim. Codez that is.

Martin - マーチン

SE has already an environment for code...

why would you need that in MathJax?

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Thought maybe backticks won't work inside an array, let's find out.

Martin - マーチン

they don't

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

(´◣д◢`+)

Martin - マーチン

What do you want to do anyway?

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

My answer in sandbox. Without it, sandbox feels depressed.

Feels kinda hard to cover something you guys haven't.

But I found an idea to make a big table. BIG I say.

Martin - マーチン

Correction.... it works: $$\mathtt{\text{xyz abc \\}} \verb|{xyz abc \\}|$$

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

09:09

Awesome. Don't need it anymore.

Whoa look who's here!

ಠ_ಠ

:'(

Martin - マーチン

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M So you can use \verb|{xyz abc \\}|

okay... learned something new though...

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

@Martin-マーチン It only needs to be a char of LaTeX code 12. \verb+Haha+ works too.

@Martin-マーチン Mission accomplished.

Martin - マーチン

yes

so much colour...

too much colour for me...

makes me feel like i am on drugs

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M try white{-}ish gray

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

11:33

@PH13 for what?

PH13

because now the hyphen is a minus and then it will be a hyphen

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

How am I supposed to find that in

Oh, nevermind just found it.

PH13

looks like you found it

looks better

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Whatevs.

Hmm, what else can you do in MathJax @Mart?

You can't do p{width} ლ(ಠ益ಠლ) ̿ ̿'̿'\̵͇̿̿\з=(•_•)=ε/̵͇̿̿/'̿'̿ ̿

Q: A long MathJax equation in a comment will make all comments overflow

If you look at the answer of this question, you'll notice that the comments are overflowing: I'm guessing that this is because of the long number in the MathJax equation in the last comment, because when I delete it using Chrome's developer tools, it goes back to the normal size. This is simil...

Yellow @Dam!

Damkerng T.

Green!

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

\mathbb is blackboard math, that is: $\mathbb{HAHA}$

Damkerng T.

By the way, I can talk only slowly because my fingers are busy with chocolate. :P

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

It only works with capitals though.

Damkerng T.

Ahh... ChatJax are tab specific.

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

16:26

@DamkerngT. I empathize. Happens to me when I'm eating ice cream.

Damkerng T.

:D

Let's see...

> $\mathit{Hello,~world!}$

> $\mathbf{Hello,~world!}$

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Yes, that's italic.

Damkerng T.

> $\mathfrak{Hello,~world!}$

> $\mathtt{Hello,~world!}$

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

The standard $\rm\TeX$ command for italic and bold are {\rm } and {it }

Damkerng T.

> $\mathcal{Hello,~world!}$

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

16:28

@DamkerngT. Truetype: tt.

@DamkerngT. \mathcal not \mathcalc

Damkerng T.

Got it!

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Oh wait. $\mathsf{Serif~font!}$

Damkerng T.

\mathsf?

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Yes.

Damkerng T.

Thanks! \mathtt looks like a monospace font.

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

16:31

\mathfrak is traditional font. But kpfonts makes it more readable. Unfortunately, I've recently grown in love with it and mathjax doesn't load kpfonts.

Damkerng T.

It looks like a font that goes well with Old English.

I still don't really know how ChatJax works though.

For example, where does ChatJax pull all those fonts from?

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

Like, how you don't?

@DamkerngT. I think chatjax is a code that only makes mathjax.js or something like that run.

Damkerng T.

I mean, being a JavaScript, it's supposed to run on my PC, but my PC doesn't have all those fonts and symbols, I think.

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

@Martin could provide the real mechanism, but he could be asleep, since he lives in Japan.

Damkerng T.

BTW, at the moment, I have 1 window, 8 tabs. :D

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

16:35

That's refreshing!

Damkerng T.

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M I see. Maybe later.

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

I see now why you aren't complaining about slow browser.

Damkerng T.

@inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M Yup! I killed my Firefox and did not restore the session (but all the tabs in the old session are still there, in one tab). ;-)

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

@DamkerngT. I believe it's like letting go and diving in the ocean, right?

Damkerng T.

A bit. :D

It definitely runs much faster!

And apparently, I seem to produce less typos than usual.

Like, the errors are now really mine, not because of the browser being sluggish or something.

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

16:38

So it makes you run faster too.

Damkerng T.

I guess you could say so! :D

inɒzɘmɒЯ.A.M

I know that feeling; now you'll never want to have that many tabs anymore, unless for Guinness record purposes.

Damkerng T.

Hee

But I guess I will restore the whole old session soon. Probably tomorrow.

Then again, FF at 8 tabs is really fast!

you are so HALPful

Martin - マーチン

@DamkerngT. MathJax pulls fonts and symbols from whatever is installed on your computer. You can probably configure that somewhere in your local settings.
