Just enough is more
Proof-editing may well be the most boring thing I have done for my thesis.
At least I didn’t have to proof-read the thing.
Urgh.
Also: is it strange that none of the default LaTeX bibliography styles present the bibliography itself in the form: Surname, Firstname, (year).? Hooray for custom-bib which is a clunky, command-line menu-driven way to make BST files. It sure beats writing a BST yourself.
I’m not sure if I’m back at this yet. But at least my thesis looks like a thesis now and is being proofread as we speak and will have a final sanity-check from my supervisors eventually.
Then I’ll submit.
Then I’ll move back to QLD.
Then I’ll start my new job. (!) Awesome.
"Most people make the mistake of thinking design is what it looks like," says Steve Jobs, Apple's C.E.O. "People think it's this veneer -- that the designers are handed this box and told, 'Make it look good!' That's not what we think design is. It's not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works." -- Steve Jobs, quoted by Matt Jones
