Hah, the paper includes `starwars → telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl` as an example of `Bookmarking Locations` in command-line customization files. Had completely forgotten about that!

I see that a VCS is almost a necessity for working remotely with others on code, but I wonder how specifically git practices used in co-location and remotely are different (git practices, not GitHub practices).
As the method returns strings anyways and `maybe` is pretty unhelpful, I request the return be changed to '¯\_(ツ)_/¯' (which is equally unhelpful, but at least a bit more fun).
Any idea which other PDF viewers implement this behavior?

But if I bought BTC on an exchange, e.g. Coinbase, then that purchase would not necessarily be recorded on the blockchain, right? Just CB internally updating a value in their DB. All BTC buying and trading would be a larger superset of the collected data.
Also if I transfer 1 BTC from one of my wallets to another, then that counts as a buy/sell transaction for this dataset!
However, according to Robert Nagy's comment they seem to struggle with test coverage for the feature: "There is little interest in writing those [tests for fetch]. To the point where it kind of is blocking further work towards spec compliance". Interesting that this is the main holdup right now.
Anyone know how Wikipedia's own "Random article" function (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random) selects articles? Truly completely random with no quality aspect?
That makes them not as useful of these kind of applications, no? Or what is the range of this feature?
If so, some more details would be interesting, no? What kind of post worked especially well? And even more interesting: what didn't work at all?

Maybe they'll go the Keybase route and integrate some crypto?! (https://keybase.io/blog/keybase-stellar-launch)
The documentation reads like a joke (or like it's autogenerated): "Not pictured: cage calls from Vow to Flap and Flop". Wow.
Are there any interesting projects using the technology to check out?

This is frustrating to no end.

The report states "German investors continue their divestment from the DAX [...] DWS Investment was the biggest domestic seller, followed by BlackRock Asset Management (Deutschland)" and "North American investment continued to grow [...] mainly driven by Vanguard".
If a German citizen sells a BlackRock ETF and switches to Vanguard (e.g. due to lower TER), would that reflect in the report as "German divestment from the DAX"?
The main website notes "very early development and may change dramatically between releases". I appreciate the introduction through comparing code examples, makes it quite clear what the design criteria are.
