@joe Joe, this idea is cursed even by your standards

@beccadax @joe is it really worse than programming in XML, a thing people were doing in earnest in the 00s

[beccadax@soincredibly.gay]

@jrose @joe I mean, two things can be cursed at once, Jordan.

@joe LISP now has tables and emphasis?

@joe if it weren't for the fact that most markdown software sucks at dealing with multiple levels of nesting I'd actually like it.

You should totally use backticks for comments, though.

@joe is it thread safe?
