To be general purpose with a very large package ecosystem so that you can get just about anything started pretty quickly. It is relatively easy to do things that aren't performance critical with python, which is great if you want an MVP to grow off of or if you're messing around with something and want to make a little flask server for it, or maybe run some image recognition, or a little anything. It's really just insanely flexible and puts a lot of the cognitive load in libraries so you can get straight to doing stuff, again, often at the cost of performance.
Went to check it out, it has a demo so it's worth giving it a shot, but then I went to look at what else this developer has published just to find it's the guy behind the original jelly car games?? Which they have a sequel to on their steam page and the music instantly sent me back. This became a huge nostalgia trip on accident, thanks for sharing!
I use something like this too, I will say it's helpful to have some simple command to append text to it so you can do it automatically, and then an extra little bit so if it's your first append of the day it adds the date. Sometimes I know something happened on a date and if you're just using paragraph breaks to separate it's harder to find but if you know it was related to this meeting on that date a few months ago you can go straight to it.
If you're into notion I wanna recommend obsidian. It's got support for both of those and it's way more lightweight. If you use the tables and images a lot I will say notion is simpler to use there, the same is possible in obsidian but it's more work for sure, but when I was using it it started to feel bloated and even though I love it I wanted something smoother and obsidian has been exactly that. Plus local storage as markdown for reliable access even if obsidian ends up shutting down or something is nice, and unbeatable for searchability since you can ripgrep through it all with ease.
I'd say they're about even, it has some things I enjoy more and some places I think The Martian was better, they're very similar in how they read though, if you didn't like The Martian you almost certainly won't enjoy Project Hail Mary.
I agree with this 100%. They are very similar in idea -- I can understand why some people might feel some kinda way about Weir pushing out a samey book. I adore both though.
Their github [1] page is more helpful for this. Typst itself (as in the program that converts your input to a PDF) is free and open source under the Apache license, and the online editor is free as well but it's currently in a public beta so that could change in the future once they move that out of the beta.
The amount of advertising you see will stay the same or potentially even increase (if the big companies are leaving then the amount they make from advertising probably drops, so they have to run more to make up for it), the quality and variety of the companies is what will go down. And if they run out completely the platform just has to shut down altogether.
The article is pretty specific, I'd say it doesn't use precise language in the title because it's covering a variety of reported problems that are detailed in the body.
