the future of markdown, according to whom?
...ition-list tags for his blog entries!
hey, i've never been one to argue for "semantic purity",
so i don't care, but who wants to use that as a model?)
in other words, i think it's too late to "unify" markdown.
and that's even assuming that y'all are able to _agree_

It may sleep, but if it sleeps regularly, it slows down swapping (because
the swapping code does mempool_alloc a...

can you see the future?
looks like my message from last week
about writing tools was right on time...
we are enjoying a display of fireworks
now going off in this particular arena...
fletcher started work on an editing app
with markdown-preview built right in,
after reporting on his blog that he had
"seen the future" in ali's post last month,
where ali debuted his syntax highlighter,
and fletcher is
