2015: Updated To The Wordpress TwentyFifteen Theme

In 2015, in an attempt to simplify the aesthetics of the blog and reduce “clutter”, the blog underwent it’s biggest design transition — from a dark-based theme (as shown above), to the custom light-based theme that was loosely based of the stock Wordpress TwentyFifteeen theme.

Latex

Display-style math equations should be surrounded with:

<div>$$ equation goes here $$</div>

Inline-style math equations that are in markdown code should be surrounded with (note the backticks):

`\( equation goes here \)`

or, if the inline equations are inside an HTML element, that backticks can be removed:

<p>\( equation goes here \)</p>

HTML Elements

Use the <del> tag for most text which requires a strike-through.

Use the class centered on block elements to center text within it.
