#typst #markup

2026-01-14

Спустя несколько лет использования #neorg я незаметно для себя перешёл от идеи формата разметки с [развитой системой ссылок](mastodon.ml/@mintbug/114072074) (привет, #norg) к идее формата, которому можно скормить что угодно и назвать это ссылкой (#markdown, иди нахуй), ибо все проблемы решаются [кастомными](mastodon.ml/@mintbug/115833182) uri-[схемами](mastodon.ml/@mintbug/114015148). Впрочем, когда мы имеем дело с полноценным языком программирования (привет, #typst), мы можем не только без боли использовать строки с возможностью экранирования, но и расширить его собственные возможности.

New hVmark Release: v1.5.0

I added something that probably should’ve been deployed with subheadings:
horizontal rules (---, ***, ___)
Better late than never.

GitHub: github.com/HisVirusness/hvmark
Docs: hisvirusness.com/hvmark#2025-1

hVmark is my tiny, opinionated markup language: MIT-licensed, intentionally strict, and built to power HisVirusness.com.

hVmark, the custom markup language behind HisVirusness.com, is officially FOSS.

WTF? This is the kind of bullshit that a salesman uses when he intentionaly confuses with . One percent margin is one percent markup. It doesn't work when the numbers get larger. There can be no markdown more than 100%...unless the seller is paying you to take the product.

#Markup languages, from IBM's GML on down the line, including \(\TeX\), TeXinfo, Scribe, SGML, HTML, XML (thank you Jon @bosak🙏), XHTML, Markdown, and their many descendants, have influenced modern #computing in innumerable ways. And their impact will continue far into the future, long after I am gone.

But, from my admittedly-limited perspective, too few #software implementers have exploited the simplicity and the homoiconicity of the #LISP syntax—that much derided and reviled "lost-in-stupid-parentheses" abstract syntax representation that kickstarted it all.

Back in the 1980s, we used to incorporate into enterprise systems the DSLs implemented using baked-in Scheme interpreters. Indeed, GIMP did just that, until they caved in and replaced their Scheme scripting engine with a Python one.

Outdated as I may appear, I remain staunchly in favour of LISP/Scheme scripting DSL in large #software systems.

So working on updating my resumé and I know this makes me a weirdo but I really like using Asciidoctor for this type of thing. Spits out some really clean looking PDFs if you know what you're doing. Highly recommend if you, like me, don't want to use Office and/or are a typography snob.

There is a blizzard of online PDF highlighter tools. SmallPDF is limited to a a number of downloads, for example.

@torb Da har jeg endelig tatt meg bry og tid til å publisere det gamle arkivet jeg hadde liggende av “Kast deg ut i tilgjengelighet”:

kastdegutitilgjengelighet.no/

Jeg har foreløpig kun gjort overfladiske, enkle endringer fra originalen. Det er mye som kan forbedres og oppdateres for å gjøre innholdet mer relevant, så bidrag mottas med takk. Kildekoden befinner seg her:

This looks like an incredible deal, but why doesn't it come with the ePub format? I know Pearson usually offers ePubs via InformIT.

Ooh, it uses 'grad' for nabla instead of 'nabla' for grad. Eek.

@ericsfraga @oantolin Yes, the direct and initial benefits of #Orgdown are mostly for non-Emacs people: karl-voit.at/2021/11/27/orgdow

However, just imagine for a minute, that all #Markdown usage is replaced with Orgdown usage. Let your thoughts wander for a moment.

This would have tremendous impact on the #Emacs people as well when it comes to working with external tools and people.

A very special "hello" to the folks who came up with HTML `title` attribute. An even more special "hello" to those who decided that an anchor's tooltip will be marked up as its "title".

🚀 Welcome to the infinite loop of humanity inventing Yet Another Language (YAML) with a fresh coat of paint. Behold, MAML: JSON's hipster cousin born in 2025, promising multiline strings and optional commas to solve problems nobody had! 🤡 Because obviously, we needed another "minimal" and "readable" format in the tech world's overflowing buffet of line noise. 🍜
