This is madness! I love it. I'd thoroughly enjoy an addition to the demo where you play back audio the mouse has captured – I think many would be interested to hear what kind of fidelity gets captured.

Agreed. Often times it's easier for me when the music doesn't have lyrics (although if I've listened to it enough times, even that stops mattering). Lately my flow music is Xerrox, Vol. 4 by alva noto[1]. [1] https:/&#x

Exactly! The idea here is to formalize the already intuitive way many of us use plain text. Once the syntax is formalized, it can be utilized by applications. This way your data remains in a portable, non-proprietary format that can be reli

Good question. I do think this would be achievable through annotations if an application were determined to do it. Annotations are sort of the catch-all for added functionality. The philosophical question is an interesting one. I think for

Beautiful site. And I agree, very similar philosophy to Margin. Just requested access, excited to give it a try.

Important question. Still thinking through this: https://github.com/gamburg/margin/issues/2

Love this idea! Thanks for adding it to the GitHub.

Very elegant way to encourage adoption of the language! This is now on the list[1], thanks. [1] https://github.com/gamburg/margin/issues/4

Thanks! This is useful.

Org mode looks great, thanks for calling my attention to it. For anyone looking for a brief introduction, they have a compact guide[1] on their site that took me a minute to find. It looks great for coders who are ready to learn new syntax.

No, but looking at it now, it's definitely an inspiring model for how to do something like this right. I'd say the goals of Margin are similar, but more focused on thought that is specifically hierarchical in nature -- whereas Arc

This is a great question and something I've pondered. I recently learned that mixing tabs and space in certain Python environments, such Google Cloud Functions, simply isn't allowed -- uploading such code will cause an error. Unfo

My first instinct is no, the order of annotations should not matter to a parser. Or, put more precisely: that would be outside the scope of the spec, and keeping track of annotation order shouldn't be required of a valid parser. (Tho

Great to hear! As I said to @brigandish below (and will shamelessly repeat): if when building the app you find yourself wanting to contribute to the js parser[1] in any way (or even any non javascript-based parser), it'd be much apprec

Agreed! This is my biggest need. If you want to contribute, or know of any open source libraries that might help me build a more robust parser, let me know -- I'm only a casual coder, and this project really stretched my capabilities o

This is awesome! Thanks for sending, I actually didn't know about these. The big difference here would be that Margin isn't an app, but a markup language that's meant to be used as an open & portable storage system for ap

Great to hear you'd consider using it. If when building the app you find yourself wanting to contribute to the js parser[1] in any way (or even any non javascript-based parser), it'd be much appreciated. That's my biggest nee

Not yet, but it's on the list! https://github.com/gamburg/margin/issues/2 Definitely a necessary feature if people are going to use this to store text. Do let me know if you have any ideas about what kin

Hey Show HN! I'd love some early feedback on Margin, a markup language for hierarchically structured thought. Margin came out of my desire to build a lightweight to-do app – though I soon realized what I really wanted was a markup la

At night, I plug my phone in across the room from my bed, turn it on airplane mode, then power it down. It's a wonderful moment that marks a healthy "disconnection" from the outside world, allowing me to have some quiet time
