      My CV is still to this day in LateX and I still kinda regret that decision.

      It just brought more headaches.

        I've completely switched over to Typst and it's so much better. All of the typesetting capabilities of LaTex but without 99% of the headache. Now all it needs is all of the neat little edge case extensions that LaTeX has gathered over the years. And possibly a real scripting language interface like LuaTex.

          I don't use Latex, but I have a ton of O'Reilly books and the Orly made me laugh hard.

                      I'm sorry, but I won't create my texts using a proprietary SaaS that will just eventually go away.

                        That hbox is much more than 9.895pt too wide.

                          WTF is everyone going on about proprietary? The entire thing is under Apache 2.0 license. Where the hell do you even get the idea that Typst is proprietary?

                            What do you mean? The typst compiler is open source. The proprietary stuff is just the web app, and it's the equivalent to what Overleaf is to LaTeX (with essentially the same business model).

                                Aaah, LaTeX, where you don’t have to care about the formatting, but do have to care about which words to use so you don’t have to care about the formatting.

                                      The microtype package helps a bit by squeezing letters.

                                        It's because LaTeX has abstracted away all the lovely plain TeX macros and people treat it as a way to not have to think about typography. This is a good explanation: https://tug.org/TUGboat/tb14-2/tb39taylor-para.pdf
