ArXiv now offers papers in HTML format
This is the reason I've never liked LaTeX from a data point view. It's made to be printed out or get to look beautiful on a PDF but was never designed to get you to a HTML file or a Word file.
I've written my thesis in Markdown in the past because of this (best for humans) which can be easily transformed to HTML, Word, PDF and even LaTeX https://github.com/tompollard/phd_thesis_markdown
And I think that XML is the best format for machines.

Ask HN: What are you surprised isn’t being worked on more?
Markdown for academic papers. We have this https://github.com/tompollard/phd_thesis_markdown (which is the best template I know and on a personal note I've written my thesis with that too) but the whole ecosystem can be still improved.

My Bad Habit of Hoarding Information
to help manage this i created a "speed dial" extension and use it basically as a visual bookmark manager. the advantage to tabs in a list is that they are easy to reference visually, and like any bookmark can be sorted and arranged into folders. so i have on for technical references, various research topics, etc that i plan to come back to. and its easy to pop one off the list to maintain them. check it out if youre curious, its open source:

I closed a lot of browser tabs
that's the inspiration for my browser extension, Yet Another Speed Dial. it works as the new tab page but basically i use it as a visual bookmark manager. i find it way easier to scan my bookmarks as thumbnails to find what i want. it's open source and supports all the major browsers, check it out!

Ask HN: What are you surprised isn’t being worked on more?
i'm working on this as a browser extension. to get my feet wet i created Yet Another Speed Dial (https://github.com/conceptualspace/yet-another-speed-dial) which many people find useful, but the end goal is to apply the same kind of richness to all bookmarks and history
