It’s got a ton of rough edges but the boilerplate is there to get a proof of concept pretty quickly

<3 This book is such a fun and opinionated entry text for learning about how to use typography in your work. I highly recommend looking through the various sections and perusing anything that interests you. It's not written solely for typography on the web so many of the how tos include instructions for word and other editing program.

As a side note the entire book is written in racket which is pretty cool.

If you use gpakosz tmux config you may find the following set up useful. https://github.com/lukesmurray/bootstrap/tree/master/.config... I replicated most of the key bindings so you can use splits without tmux. Still no support for multiple sessions or persistence but that’s on kittys roadmap

Is there any worry about what would happen if the water supply runs out? The article noted that the GMMR might run out in 60-100 years and supplies millions of people with water.

Does anybody know if bevy supports networking or multiplayer?
Why don’t you write it with posix only tools then? It’s a great idea that didn’t exist yet. Who cares how the developer made it? I’m sure if it takes off people will rewrite it in go and rust with standalone binaries and the HN crowd will love it. I’m pretty sure people use the tools they’re most familiar with. Bashing people for their choice of tool is a popular comment on HN but doesn’t accomplish anything.
Re:Show HN: Markdown-Anki-Decks on Wednesday December 23, 2020 @02:51PM (#25521418)
Hey everyone,

This is my first Show HN. Some of you may remember MDAnki, a program to convert Markdown to Anki Cards. I loved that idea but MDAnki always ran into issues where cards would be duplicated on reimports. This program is very similar but solves those syncing issues. If you've always wanted to write AND edit your Anki notes in Markdown and have been frustrated by existing tooling then check this program out. I would love some feedback.
