LaTeX Vim set up, Best way to take notes - Vimwiki

Ik the tutorial seems a little vague. Learn yourself. Crucial steps are left here, get cracking and figure it out. No fucking hand-holding here. Explore the steps deeper and you will uncover more, there is a lot to learn and I can't put all the relevant stuff here.

You're both informative and bluntly humorous. I love it

[@enfannoir6151]

lmao definitively the best nerd tech video i've seen in a while. "This guys is using the best note taking app to write a shittier note taking app" definitely got a sub

[@pinkSid---]

aw shieet thanks for your time and comment. Yeah fuck techlead, and his japanese rip off clone. Fucking devlife whatever. Shit bloated drm programms, and fuck electron apps

@@pinkSid--- HOLY BASED 😲 POGCHAMP

[@ghosthunter0950]

This gigachad disliked his own video lmao

[@pinkSid---]

yeah I admit my mistakes. VS cuck is HORRIBLE!!! I even redacted the video by changing the title and put an update in the comments. Thanks for watching

[@mefrefgiweuhef4808]

Love ur vids bro!! Plz keep uploading more 🔥🔥

[@pinkSid---]

alright man thanks for the view and your time. Just tryna beat the proprietary corpo human rights violators. Go flash a linux distro and dab on the oppressed

[@mefrefgiweuhef4808]

@@pinkSid--- fuck proprietary software !! Gotta get my bros on Linux

[@sinonimo8719]

Looks fine, I would add that in my experience obsidian brings the useful part of the graphics interface. It has a nice community, nice plugins. Support for most media files you can use directly there. It has vim mode built-in, but it's not as great as the neovim itself.

[@soupnoodles]

Lmao I love how we all have our editor phases

[@samgould8567]

Phase? I’ve been at this for over a decade. People with this disposition often just graduate to higher levels.

[@HellhammerHH]

You'll join the dark side of Doom Emacs soon enough

[@pinkSid---]

ok no offense but emacs pretty bloated. I use ranger, zathura, neovim and firefox, yeah they are seperate programms but emacs is just an OS anyway

[@andrewiglinski148]

lol that thumbnail is the most accurate description of the modern stem academic I’ve ever seen. Edit: I commented before I even watched. After now watching I can say without a doubt this is my favorite intro/instructional/workflow video on the internet.

[@pinkSid---]

Academia shit, yeah man you are right holy fuck. They promote the most retarded tools ever. Thanks for the insight and the view

[@pinkSid---]

Oh shit thanks

[@ZotyLisu]

in what situations taking "notes" this way is better? how would you take for ex. math notes this way, while not being terribly slow and using way too much focus on the syntax?

[@pinkSid---]

1 syntax can be handled with snippets and typing a simple $$ isnt hard. 2 You wanna click the fucking mouse, click add equation, scroll 3 secs for each fucking symbol and finally get your equation? Or just learn, or have your snippet engine, just print out things like \int_{3}^{6x} for you??

[@cheekygrapes7191]

nice thumbnail bro

[@pinkSid---]

Ah yes I use the GIMP.

[@mallninja9805]

This is a great example of why people just accept Windows and all it's spyware.

[@DrGodzirra]

LateX might be the best method avaliable, but its still a gaint shitty mess. its so unintutive and a headache to get started. I had to configure so much crap and learn all the nuance of different packages.

[@pinkSid---]

yeah that's true. GNU troff is aparently a lot better and more minimal. Eitherway thanks for the view

[@FeedmeSeymore]

Oh man I’m shittin’ myself this is too funny😂

[@pinkSid---]

ah yes gotta dab on the proprietary corpo cucks. Thanks for watching

[@TheCocktales]

Lmao you too based for KZbin bro thanks for the tutorial

[@pinkSid---]

ah yes thx, just do the good ol switch

[@flor.7797]

I'd rather use markdown

[@pinkSid---]

You can use vimwiki and have markdown syntax. This is mostly meant for math notes. Obsidian is lame. Thanks for the comment.

[@shiv8060]

Word is the best IDE

[@pinkSid---]

In my eyes, anything other than vim is basically as good as that.

[@lukasq1565]

why are you so angry touch some grass

[@pinkSid---]

I mean it is a personality. and I spend the least time infront of the screen compared to most people.... Eitherway thanks for the comment.

[@MrSomethingred]

Your setup is bloat

[@pinkSid---]

Oh....... That hurt my feelings :((

[@cashout8582]

Very bad tutorial, just heard: "install this, I don't want to show you how to install it so look it up, his source is trust me bro" just show how to properly install the software with proper usability and examples of real world scenarios. Quit being lazy, you need our views and we're just looking for accurate data

[@pinkSid---]

Honestly I get your point. But if I laid everything out step by step than you wouldn't learn the necessary skills. Installing nodejs isn't fucking hard, neither is installing neovim. Learning to search your problems and find answers is a necessary skill you need to develop, I even gave an example config with comments so you can read and learn further. Now go get crackin my little one thx for the view

[@cashout8582]

@@pinkSid--- yeah that would make sense if there were proper examples. The problem is every other guy that is trying to make it tutorial is skipping crucial steps on instructions saying "I won't cover this, I won't go over that right now" leading to lack of clarity and not knowing the proper steps of a process

[@dnuma5852]

@@pinkSid--- yeah this was the most unclear tutorial i have ever seen. not even going to bother setting this up because ive already been trying for way longer than any other tutorial for other editors has taken, not to mention you come off as extremely aggressive

[@pinkSid---]

@@dnuma5852 alright then if you don't like the style and the video assumes too much prerequisit knowledge then sorry. I might make another one.

[@paulywalnutz5855]

@@pinkSid--- i think the tutorial is epic. i us eobsidian and logseq. i have no intention of using vimwiki. i have no idea why im watching vimwiki tutorials, yet here we are. it is what it is, man

[@clarencelucas1256]

bro do step by step 😥😥

[@clarencelucas1256]

stuck at 1:49, how i get to .config

[@pinkSid---]

I kinda have, watch the playlist I made

[@pinkSid---]

@@clarencelucas1256 also watch channels like the primeagen. the .config is a HIDDEN folder, enable the view all option.

@@pinkSid--- bro i did it, now i understand the jargon and i can watch this video and it makes sense now. getting vimtex is my next mission

[@pinkSid---]

@@clarencelucas1256 getting vimtex will take you 1 second. U need to understand how plugins work, shit like vim plug or native package management. Again, don't think about DOING, think about understanding then u will literally FIGURE out how to do this on your OWN!!

i agree , word is very shit

[@pinkSid---]

Yes, no fucking question. They are tantamount to 1984 in a sci fi context. Fuck em

[@DashieTM]

coc, heh :P haven't seen that in a while, since all the prominent nvim guys promote the nvim-lsp/nvim-cmp environment.

[@pinkSid---]

Oh.... Yeah I wanted to explore some alternatives to coc. I don't think there is anything necessarily wrong with it but thanks. I'll be looking into this. I also found some other snippet engines like vim-snip and all. I think coc is alright but yes, I'll be exploring the alternatives thx for the comment and view.

[@DashieTM]

@@pinkSid--- no problem :) and no worries, nothing wrong with coc, as far as I have heard, it works just as well as. Either way, it was the only thing that worked with vim since it has no native lsp. With neovim they wanted to integrate that functionality, hence the creation of nvim-cmp and more.

[@pinkSid---]

yeah I couldn't find anything wrong with coc either. But either way it is good to have alternatives, thanks for pointing them out.
