File uploading in #CakePHP just became serious: https://t.co/ObfcG6d3js
#FileStorage #plugin: store the file once, upload it in pieces.

[Mark Scherer @dereuromark]

@githubstatus Also attaching binaries to releases are broken:
https://t.co/l2282Z57Q9
Run gh release upload "0.1.8" \
HTTP 500 (https://t.co/Xb1F0UmoUu)
Error: Process completed with exit code 1.

[Mark Scherer @dereuromark]

@githubstatus It sure has not! I tried like 20x. "Review pending deployments - requested by dereuromark in Release #12" @ e.g. https://t.co/zHXmTqP7RK etc

[Mark Scherer @dereuromark]

@githubstatus I had to do it via CLI, otherwise I couldn't have finished the releases pending.

#Carve vs #Djot vs #Markdown - the new benchmarks are out for PHP, JS, Rust: https://t.co/uL1vLj1JkS

Game Changer für presentations/slides: https://t.co/WN4zSeOxL2 .
The @revealjs #Carve demo says it all, dont think there is a cleaner way to build slides.
Having it provide handout/PDF on top is neat.

What are you currently using to avoid having to edit manual HTML or hacky MD?

[Mark Scherer @dereuromark]

https://t.co/RsyhqI3P8l A practical migration: convert a #Markdown file, inspect the few syntax changes that matter, and add linting before publishing. #Carve #Markup - give it a try and see if you like it. Feedback welcome!

I stand with Macklemore.

@Mario_Deluna I wrote a library for #Carve for your #Echo language: https://t.co/hgXJ6gKGNa
Powerful markup language features out of the box both local and online. As fast as Rust itself, and >10x faster then the PHP one.

[Mark Scherer @dereuromark]

@Mario_Deluna Just benchmarked it - amazingly fast :)

@jeefy @IanColdwater Now do https://t.co/xIraaGsAP8

#Carve has now its own Community in Discord: https://t.co/B7ZREgOFzz Please join in for latest discussions around syntax and future updates. We just released a new version and the API is now quite stable and working very well across all major languages & editors. #djot #markdown

[Mark Scherer @dereuromark]

@MicrosoftLearn In my case it is "just" a new markup language: Carve, a better markdown so tp speak.

Comparing #Markdown, #Djot, #Carve and many other formats directly through #Pandoc, the universal markup converter.

For Carve reference in general check out https://t.co/f0IUPLpqMp
It explains why it can (and should) become the future of "markdown" :)

[Mark Scherer @dereuromark]

@DanKornas The numbers of the extraction test and the benchmarks look infinitely more promising btw: https://t.co/mDdrzs5T2W

[Mark Scherer @dereuromark]

@DanKornas Nice! I tried something similar with Carve: https://t.co/f3NCExy6KI Since Carve is by design way more powerful than Markdown, it wasn't surprising that the overall quality of the results are also beyond what MD itself could produce.
Final MD conversion would be similar, though.

TailwindUi Plugin - #Tailwind/#DaisyUI drop-in for #CakePHP: https://t.co/ckxd7Q2UIZ

[Mark Scherer @dereuromark]

Offline or online documents to really cool PDF with a single click then.
IDE support across all major players.

The single most powerful markdown markup so far by far now IMO.
Check it out!

[Mark Scherer @dereuromark]

It is getting real with #Carve markup:
I just shipped a claude SKILL to handle AI handling of .crv files properly - and to-pdf seems to work really well in producing report PDFs.
incl graceful degradation of graphs, mermaid, tabs and code groups etc:

@webworks_com Interesting. I wonder how it compares to Carve - https://t.co/xIraaGsAP8 #markdown #postmarkdown (see also https://t.co/eKdG6JsSEE )
From a first glance: MPP hides semantics to stay Markdown. Carve makes semantics first-class syntax and accepts being not-Markdown?

[Mark Scherer @dereuromark]

Twenty years of #Markdown hindsight, in one markup language: #Carve.

What a "post-Markdown" standard could look like: strictly specified, secure by design, lightweight source for complex HTML/PDF targets.
