That is how it was for me, I got a two-column contract with each paragraph in both languages.

Hell yeah.

I am so, so glad that Open Access is being fought for instead of being appeased with concessions.

I would strongly recommend Gary Bernhardt's Destroy All Software[0] screencasts. They're usually done in Ruby but independent from language, and more about concisely explaining general programming concepts.

Everything is crisp, and distilled down as far as possible. I've learned a lot just from the thoughts it has given names to and elaborated on.

If you're skeptical, there's even free trial episodes that you could give a shot first. (I would recommend "Functional core, imperative shell")

That reminds me, pandoc offers compilation of latex fragments inside markdown source when exporting to pdf, which is how I typeset almost all of my math.

This is of course not even close to the same thing as official support would be, but it's good to have in a pinch, so you can typeset some math without having to bust out a latex toolchain you might not have used for a long time.

PS: pandoc offers a command-line flag to set the latex engine, which means you can use XeTeX or LuaTeX for better unicode support.

I wrote something[1] for taking notes while programming in particular, and it's been incredibly helpful. I use a script to roll up a week's worth of notes and review them, and filter "the good parts" into my personal wiki and Anki to review.

I currently still use Omnifocus for part of my system because it is still pretty great, and has excellent cross-device support, but my gripes are:

- The context support is weak. It ideally would be replaced by a tagging system, but I doubt that's coming at this point.

- No support for making sequentially dependent tasks -- I can't mark task A to be doable as soon as task B completes. (I guess I could, if I do a lot of sub-projects with sequential dependency)

- In addition to this, subprojects are janky. They're just kinda awful to use, from the awkward indentation to the fact that the side-bar projects view is not actually a full tree, and just works with folders. This would need to be changed to also expand/be usable for sub-projects, not just for folders and top-level projects.

- The system maintenance tools are lacking. One of the core tenets of GTD is to make sure that every project always has a next step, and OmniFocus has no support for this whatsoever, aside from manual review. I realise that paper also doesn't do this, but it seems like something a digital solution should have.

- No sharing information, as you said, aside from exporting things as TaskPaper.

- Support for deferments, but not for Tickler files, which are one of the handiest things about a paper-based system.

- Reference and storage, per nature of OmniFocus, has to be completely separated, which adds jank. I realise this is massive scope-bloat, so it's probably not fair to complain about.

Things I really like and will probably keep even after I drop OmniFocus:

- The dedicated mail drop. I think even after I move away from OF, this is going to be something I keep.

- The "due" list view. OmniFocus pushes you towards using this a lot, even if it's not completely in the spirit.

- The good integration between my laptop and phone is going to be hard to live without again.

I hope this shed some light on my gripes and issues with OmniFocus. :)

The only implementation I have found worthwhile is paper, and to a certain extent, plain markdown/org files in Dropbox. Everything else, like OmniFocus and whatnot has had severe issues with the flexibility inherently required.
