Less people around ... but unfortunately the good times are coming to an end as we get closer to exiting Stage 4 lockdown.-4wd (October 20, 2020, 04:50 PM)
My worry is as soon as they stop paying mortgages for people it will create a surge of new and clueless homeless on the streets. I envisage them crawling over each other like ants.-MilesAhead (October 22, 2020, 09:38 AM)

Tag syntax isn't standard markdown is it?-Dormouse (October 19, 2020, 04:06 PM)
I'm in two minds over extending markdown. As far as I can tell it's been standard practice for a long time and it's the only way to add functions elegantly. otoh it's a pita when apps disagree.
I find some standard markdown with two syntaxes for the same thing distinctly kludgy and some looks like poor design choices - but they're what we have, like qwerty and MS shortcuts.
Obsidian has just introduced block references. By definition that's another markdown extension.
For my money, old markdown has no way of coping with the new PKM uses and so those apps have to adopt their own usage. Preferably with some sort of tacit agreement, in the end, about what those extensions will be.
I prefer [[ ]], so I'm pleased it's becoming a standard, even if it hasn't broken through to editors yet. Editors won't understand other extensions, but that doesn't really matter because they probably won't have that functionality either, and if they decide to add it they will presumably go with the syntax that's been newly established.-Dormouse (October 19, 2020, 04:06 PM)
I see. But I still see it as inescapable. All the tools out there are doing something to deal with links, tags, etc.-superboyac (October 19, 2020, 12:16 PM)
It's not proprietary. This guy is furthest from that as possible. The triple bracket is simply an optional functional workaround to match better than luhrman's method of branching topics. I think all the zettel software have certain workarounds, I don't think you can escape it.-superboyac (October 19, 2020, 01:40 AM)
But not sure if I'd want to be done with *even more brackets*. 😄 I already find double brackets annoying enough. But yeah, I like the root idea.-JavaJones (October 18, 2020, 06:24 PM)
they have a features filter so you can quickly find a most appropriate software for you:Problem is that they're wrong or misleading. They have Obsidian up now so I could just read to see how bad it is. Even by the standards of internet reviews, I'd regard it as a very shoddy job.

For more than 70 years, most big movie studios have been banned from owning movie theaters thanks to a ruling in a federal antitrust case. That's no longer true.
The Paramount consent decrees were established by a landmark Supreme Court ruling in 1948 in U.S. v. Paramount Pictures. The decrees banned major studios of the day from owning and operating movie theaters. Last Friday, a federal judge in the Southern District of New York ended the decrees, according to court documents.
"The 77-year-long law has allowed movie theater chains to build a wealth of screens across the country ... and if studios wanted to compete with those numbers, they have a lot of catching up to do," DiGaetano says.
"I don't think there's a lot of real estate for movie theater operations out there," he adds. "I'm not gonna say we're over-screened but there are a lot of screens out there."
Is there any way I can permanently change the location of these settings? I have some folders I use for settings used in multiple apps-dordabis (October 16, 2020, 10:54 PM)
You could make a simple GUI for it, (see PoshGUI), but the code will blow out past 13 lines-4wd (October 15, 2020, 02:17 AM)

Looks like fiverr might be the way to go.-mouser (October 07, 2020, 05:50 AM)
I'll have to try that. I've been using either/or.
