Won't it also be easier for non-malicious actors to find bugs and report them responsibly?


If you wish death upon all flat earthers, then you're no better than they are :)


Meh



Did you not read the whole post or do you just not believe her?

> This is not about me. Thankfully I am on my fifth album and can support myself, my band, crew, and entire management team by playing live shows. This is about the new artist or band that has just released their first single and will not be paid for its success. This is about the young songwriter who just got his or her first cut and thought that the royalties from that would get them out of debt.


Considering she's 25 and her net worth is north of $300mil...I don't think the money is relevant to her


I don't believe her. She wasn't some struggling songwriter desperately touring with a band. It's just guff.


Yeah except the ladder leads directly into the shark tank. (Unemployment, retaliation from your rapist, damage to your reputation/resume)


Here's the link to their YouTube video since the site seems to be down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuaCBK1spjU

Yeah, just look what happened when they let Guy Fieri on there!


How about a... chart?


I've never heard of AsciiDoc, but I'd say the biggest advantage that Markdown has is its ubiquity. It's used by GitHub, StackOverflow, Reddit, and even Tumblr has an option for it.


Also the fact that there are multiple (and good) client-side Markdown libraries while stuff like AsciiDoc generally requires server-side rendering (and the associated server load and round-trip penalties).

Unless I'm missing it, there's no pure client-side AsciiDoc?


[1] seems to be an AsciiDoc render on client-side, though have no idea if it's any good though...

Yeah, hard to say without a live demo. Also, downloading an entire Ruby interpreter in JS seems a little on the heavy side. If you were going to go that route, might as well use texlive.js and get a full-blown LaTeX system. :-)

Cool nonetheless.


I think ubiquity comes with knowledge, if there exists superior tools, people tend to use them eventually. I know that GitHub supports AsciiDoc already, one would hope that the other ones become enlightened!


This looks great! It reminds me of this Google Doc I put together a while back, which you are free to copy/draw inspiration from. And I've already added this page to it, so that should already be a good lesson on recursion :p https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jlJCxNG7XyCPpUNRybH1b2Pb...


Thanks, this looks very comprehensive. Especially like the list of blogs and FB pages, these are hard to find. Did you ever think about rank-ordering the resources within each section?
