How to use LaTeX to typeset the following text
Lorem ipsum dorat basak.
0 = a + b
a + b = 0
so that the equations are
- aligned to the left
- aligned with '='
My attempt:
Lorem ipsum dorat basak.
\begin{flalign*}
0 &= a+b \\
a + b &= 0
\end{flalign*}
#Left align equations

Don’t put the & at the equals sign, put it at the 0
analog sparrow
Don’t put the & at the equals sign, put it at the 0
can you show wdym?
how does that make a difference?
\begin{flalign*}
0& = a+b \\
a + b& = 0
\end{flalign*}

Move the & in the second line to &0 as well
oh oh oh sorry my skill issue
i meant both equations shld be aligned with the '=' signs
a syntatically incorrect work around would be

Isn’t this aligned with the =
Oh you want left aligned as well
Ok

a syntatically incorrect work around would be
\begin{flushleft}
Lorem ipsum dorat basak.
$\begin{aligned}
0 &= a + b \\
a + b &= 0
\end{aligned}$
\end{flushleft}

yeah that's to save space

observe that the font in this pic
analog sparrow
**vin100 helps self\-learning maths**
is greater than that in this one

The font isn’t different sized, discord just scales pictures up if they are small

ok so the onscreen size of the later is visually greater than the former

i call this "syntatically incorrect" cuz aligned is for one single multi-line math expression
like
,,\begin{aligned}
\text{sth} &= \text{very long term} \
&+ \text{another long term}
\end{aligned}

Look at fleqn

Using aligned for this is completely ok

Look at fleqn
but that would require changing preamble?
a change in preamble would take hours
say to switch bewteen fleqn and no fleqn
i wonder if there's convenient stuff like
\makeatletter
\newcommand{\leqnomode}{\tagsleft@true\let\veqno\@@leqno}
\newcommand{\reqnomode}{\tagsleft@false\let\veqno\@@eqno}
\makeatother
allowing easy switching from one mode to another
oh oh oh i think i've found the soln on https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/16843/126386
