One cute feature of markdown I'd not noticed before: there's no syntax for images *without* a description (i.e. alt text).  https://spec.commonmark.org/0.31.2/#images

When a tool supports both regular expressions and literal strings, which should be the default? If you default to regex, users can match more strings than they realise (e.g. `foo.txt`) or less (e.g. `foo(bar)`). I typically see regex as the default, but I prefer the opposite.

One day I am going to reach the height of technological sophistication, and every clock in my house will handle daylight savings automatically. I'm not there yet. I think modern appliances are getting better though. (Does a microwave really need to know the current time?)
