As a long-time LaTeX user, I can confirm that there’s quite a bit of overlap between that and masochism.
I was going to say I like the outcome of LaTeX, far more than the experience of actually setting the outcome up.
LaTeX (/ˈlɑːtɛk/ ⓘ LAH-tek or /ˈleɪtɛk/ LAY-tek,[2] often stylized as LaTeX) is a software system for typesetting documents
Note the pronunciation is distinct from /ˈleɪˌtɛks/ the material.
But, sure everyone has to make that joke at least once.
I love gimp
I love windows.
Oh, wait… nooo…
The one is nearly sexual power play condemned by a huge portion of society, the other is wearing uncomfortable clothes
They’re the same person
Can confirm
same me
Venn of this is just two concentric circles.
Funnily, just the other day I was reverse looking up what a symbol was in LaTeX, i.e. I had the \symbol text but not the symbol itself. So I look up whatever that symbol was in text, along with the word ‘latex.’ I think the search was ‘cup latex.’ Colour me surprised when I go to ‘images’, try and see if an image of it shows up. It was not LaTeX. Not with that capitalisation
I had a similar experience looking up the code for ⊥, I didn’t realize the world has given a very specific meaning to the words “latex bottom”
Tf even is that symbol? Looks like Box-drawing characters to me
It’s “up tack”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_tack
I always pronounced it bottom because of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greatest_element_and_least_element#Top_and_bottom or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottom_type which is how the Haskell report (where I got comfortable with the symbol) uses it.
What’s up tack?
Nothin’, what’s up with you?
Nun, wazup witcha?
⊥
Oi, bruv. Just wanned to know wassup. No need to middle-finger me (without emojis)
Once at school I wanted to know how to use Japanese characters so I search for “japanese in latex” on the images section. Not what I was looking for but not disappointed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Weird how this meme format is always ‘man nerd’ and ‘woman normal’.
Especially when you read left to right so the “punchline” should be on the right I think.
It’s Zoey Deschanel, idk how normal that woman is.
I love this meme because there are people who are very devoted to one or the other. And then there is the venn diagram overlap…
The local BDSM clubs male participants are like 80 % doing something IT related. The overlap might be bigger than you expect.
fake, no one likes LaTeX
Please warn me of any sites with Latex so i can add them to my blocked list so i can only find LaTeX related stuff.
Well, lets start you off with this beauty (NSFW)
I 🖤 gals like her.
(Username checks out)
So do I
Obviously, it’s the man doing science and the woman interested in clothes
LaTeX sheen, fursuit blush
