Always proud of myself when I accurately gauge the dogs’ need to pee.

Probably my biggest frustration with most of the knowledge management apps out there — in coverage if not impact — is how limited their code block support is.

“What no autoindent? No LSP? Only 4 dozen programming languages highlighted? What is this 1993?”

Your note app’s kernel is in Go? I dunno, put Chroma in and send the AST back and forth with the electron editor front-end. Sure it’ll suck all my CPU but then you’ll only be missing half a dozen of the languages I use regularly.

I will never not snicker at “Power BI” so let us all pray that I never meet anyone who worked on or is selling it.

“But if you want autoindent LSP and lots of languages you could use Dendron in VS Code.”

Okay yes but they use Markdown and I prefer ReST or really just give me a block-based editor for notes.

Which establishes that I’m just impossible on principle.
