Ubuntu 14.04 Python 3.4.2 Setup using pyenv and pyvenv

What I did to get Python 3.4.2 on Ubuntu 14.04. The stock version of Python 3 on Ubuntu is 3.4.0. Which is missing some of the best parts! (asyncio, etc). Luckily I discovered pyenv which solved my problem.

Install pyenv

Pyenv (not to be confused with pyvenv) is the Python equivelant of rbenv. It lets you configure which Python environment/version is available per directory, user, or other session variables.

I followed the instructions here to install pyenv in my home directory. Verbatem, those instructions are:

sudo apt-get install git python-pip make build-essential libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev libreadline-dev libsqlite3-dev

This is a template for making a well formatted/tweaked org file that you can export to pdf via latex. It overrides the default headings and footers using the fancyhdr package. I included other customizations I'd use, like biblatex-chicago, but that's up to you. How Gist displays this file is obviously not how it will look once exported via org-m…

How to use biber with orgmode --> latex

I may be wrong, but to my knowledge org-mode does not natively play well with biber for bibliography/reference purposes. Until I figure out a work around, here's what I've figured out along with what the internet has shown me.

Given that you are using biblatex with biber as your bibliography system, the file is test.org, and you have the necessary configurations (packages, .bib file, etc) you must:

  1. Export orgmode as latex with org-latex-export-to-latex

  2. Then via terminal:

pdflatex test.tex

how to put two figures, side by side proportionally, in a latex file
\usepackage{multirow,array}
\usepackage{floatrow}
% in combination with floatrow for properly adjusted figures, placeins ensures said figures appear
% where they are declared within the latex code, i.e. in subsection Part I of this paper. For proper
% usage with subsections, MUST use \FloatBarrier command after done with a figure
\usepackage[section]{placeins}
% ensures captions are properly centered under their respective figures
\usepackage[justification=centering]{caption}
% special command for table captions
\newfloatcommand{capbtabbox}{table}[][\FBwidth]
