It's the standard in most hard science fields. Also common in some humanities, too.

Can I ask which humanities?

I'm probably showing my bias here, but I'm (respectfully) surprised that, say, poets would want to work in LaTeX :)

Mixing can work pretty well. I'm using Plasma with i3 as a WM, and it hits the perfect spot for me. Not sure if the same thing can be done on Wayland, though?


I would expect it to mostly work. Standardizing the interface between the window manager and clients. So as long as Plasma isn't depending on any special behavior (by intention or assumption) of KWin it will work just fine.


Congrats man! Just as a side note, "paras" means best, in Finnish, so that'd make you the Best Chopra!


"Paras" in Sanskrit means "someone who, by their touch, turns anything into gold."


It's also Persian for "money"


Extremely strong nominative determinism at play here across multiple languages.

It's been a common problem with HN. I remember when NodeJS came out, it was exactly the same, and then with all the crypto-craze.


Nil punning in Clojure gives you that kind of experience, for example. Things that would break in other languages, just "work as you'd expect them" in Clojure (except when you drop down to host primitives, and then nils don't behave nicely anymore). In general, it makes for a really pleasant dev experience, I find.
