There’s this thing called wind that makes noise and also other vehicles on the road as well. Did you ever consider that?

I’m waiting for them to add the isEvenSteven() method. Then I can integrate this with my escrow smart contract.

This is wonderful. I’d love to see this integrated into Jira and my own personal project manager (OmniFocus). Even if I could import and export TaskPaper that would be super handy.

> I see nothing similar with the gaming platforms.

How can you say that? I can’t run home brew games on an Xbox due to intentional locking down of the device by Microsoft forcing me to buy games they bless to be on their platform.

But some how these companies get a pass but Apple gets constantly blasted for this practice?

For the record, you should be able to do these things. But that is somewhat of a naive view of the world.

The referenced articles seem to only focus on the US-China relationship. What about the impact it will have between the US and the rest of the world? Will other countries be less apt to purchase US goods from abroad?

I don’t think it is very fair the Chinese can ship very cheaply to the rest of the world but this seems like a heavy handed approach.

Care to elaborate? I would love to see some real plans to change my mindset on where the U.S. is heading.

This is probably considered off, so message me

I looked into Tiddlywiki before but it seemed too involved to maintain easily and overkill for my use case. I have recently found https://www.notebooksapp.com/ and am in the process of converting all my desperate notes and documents into it using the internal linking to create my own kind of wiki.

Everything is plain text, has markdown support, apps on most platforms, ability to automate things for everyday use, and easier to use overall.

Also I just can’t stand the idea of “tiddlers”.

What does that have to do with the fact that driving is an activity that carries the risk of death? Necessity is not part of the discussion.

How could they prove intent? Fudge the code twice then the third time wipe it and play dumb.

I certainly care. Is this open source, how can I help?
