I am in the process of porting a very long piece I wrote about James Damore's bad science for Medium to a new DW-for-my-pro-science-writing that I can link people to a little more comfortably, because I am straight up more comfortable on DW than on Medium.

But also, it is suuuuper long and the HTML is suuuuuper boring and I made one mistake I need to fix to feel good about myself and uuuuugh I'll feel better when I'm done but

aaaauuuuuuuuuugh

So cool! (Your story, not the HTML issues). I am also a science writer.

Someone recently turned me onto using Markdown for formatting drafts, which has actually been pretty awesome since it’s really easy to fix glitches and integrates with LaTeX. And to think, I thought R was only good for statistics and pretty graphs.

You can format your DW posts with Markdown, as well--put
!markdown
alone as the first line. More details at my blog.

Thank you! This is pretty awesome. Also, nice Ani reference - Little Plastic Castle was my favorite of her albums.
