RestartKernel··on Using Pandoc and Typst to Produce PDFs
It's just called "markdown". I used it to make this template a few years ago:

Only problem was that hyperlinks are converted into footnotes, but I'd be surprised if you can't hack your way around that.

RestartKernel··on Show HN: Markwhen: Markdown for Timelines
Remark.ing sounds incredible. I've been considering building something like Memos but based on Markdown files rather than a relational database for personal use, but this comes really close to what I was looking for.

Are you planning to open source it? I couldn't find it on your GitHub.

RestartKernel··on Using Pandoc and Typst to Produce PDFs
I love Typst, but I've found its typesetting not quite on par with LaTeX last time I checked. Not sure why you wouldn't just convert your Markdown to LaTeX if you're not writing source code yourself anyhow. There's even a package that allows you to parse Markdown as part of your LaTeX build, which works really well in combination with Overleaf if you want this workflow available from anywhere with next to no preliminary setup.
RestartKernel··on The great abandonment: what happens to the natural world when people disappear?
[3] is really interesting. I'm not surprised, but it really feels like history is happening when even the mundane starts to reflect it.
RestartKernel··on Found in the wild: the first unkillable UEFI bootkit for Linux
That's simultaneously really cool and horrifying.
RestartKernel··on Redis Inc seeks control over future of Rust redis-rs client library
That seems inappropriate to me for a README — at least in its current, somewhat inflammatory, form. Is the commit itself an act of protest or is this a genuine attempt at getting it pulled?
RestartKernel··on Truly portable C applications
This is neat, but I'd rather just pick my platform from a list of binaries. Those who don't know what they're running probably aren't spoofing their user agent either, so you can just* serve them the correct option with a big button first.

* It doesn't seem that you can reliably get the CPU architecture from the user agent yet.

RestartKernel··on The shrimp welfare project
This reads like a thought experiment, but its sincerity makes me uncomfortable in the way good art does. Thanks for sharing.
