    Given that Latex is a clusterfuck of legacy, it speaks volumes that it’s still so much easier to do things there rather than in powerpoint.

    With MS office I’ve also adopted a “fuck it, I’ll just take a screenshot” approach.

      A collection of screenshots send around by mail after having poorly drawn arrows and frames in it, is official documentation. Source: my corporation

        Yup, I tried doing it properly too when I started and now I don’t give a shit. If the company wants us to use crappy tools, that’s what they get.

          What are you saying? The project is finished, the new stuff implemented and now you want to buy some fancy software and shedule 100 hours for documentation? We dont need that! Just help out your colleagues, when they have a question. They’ll all know what to do in no time!
