Famously Jeff Dean uses emacs. Emacs integration to internal systems (source code, code search, LSP, build, etc) was super solid when I was there ~2020.

Maybe because 360 is already divisible by 6, so 720 is not much of an upgrade over 5!. 7! On the other hand adds another prime factor to it.

You’re ignoring the grinder, which in my opinion is the most important part of home espresso making. Add at least 200USD for a good quality manual burr grinder.

Could you point to documentation on how does Cap'n Proto achieve this? Does it keep a header with offsets of bye positions for individual fields? What happens when a variable sized field is edited?

Have you considered Emacs + Org-mode? Works wherever Emacs works (Linux, Mac) and there are apps for Android and iOS. Org files are basically text files that you can commit to git or sync via Google drive, Dropbox, OneDrive etc. Not exactly markdown but GitHub renders org file pretty well.
After trying out multiple note taking apps this is what I settled on. You can use it as simple as a note taking app or configure it to do lots of complicated things like managing your to-dos, appointments, agendas. And my favorite feature is inline code-block that I can execute.
