  Could benefit from +(podcast) in the title (like video submissions) since there doesn't seem to be a transcript.

    Yes, we use [audio] by analogy with the much more common [video]. Added. Thanks!

      Audio! I'm not sure I've seen this tag (sorry for the attempted invention of something new)

  DSL - domain specific languages. Juuust in case anyone wasn't aware. ;) BTW if you don't recognize an acronym in an article or title -- just ask. Someone here always knows, no matter how obscure. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain-specific_language https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain-specific_language

    Not to discount that there may be HN readers who don’t recognize the acronym, but I suspect it’s one of the more familiar ones. Edit: oh I see the dead comments now. Welp, thanks for helping! That said, it never hurts to disambiguate… which is why I’m slightly surprised the Wikipedia disambiguation page[1] doesn’t include the entry I thought to disambiguate, and even more surprised it’s second in Urban Dictionary’s top results[2]. 1: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSL_(disambiguation) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSL_(disambiguation) 2: Use your preferred search engine or whatever

  Is there a summary with bullet points?
