@MaksShamihulau @somyatwts @trq212 Of course markdown files are txt files. Being able to express headers, lists, etc. is helpful except for trivial prompts.

@somyatwts @trq212 > html implementation varies

The subset of HTML, CSS and JS used by AI agents is pretty standard; a machine that runs Claude Code runs a browser that can display the artifacts mentioned by @trq212 without issue.

@somyatwts @trq212 There are several markdown dialects in common use off the top my head: Gruber’s original, GitHub-flavored, Multimarkdown, CommonMark, Kramdown, Pandoc, Obsidian, CriticMarkup.

This is how ICE agents responded after watching a mother of three bleed out in her car after they shot her multiple times in the head.

🧠DEMENTIA PREVENTION—Almost everyone needs to go out now and get the shingles vaccine ASAP. Don’t wait until age 50 for standard eligibility—ask your doctor for singles vax. MULTIPLE large studies worldwide now show that shingles vaccine strongly prevents dementia onset. Do it.

SPECIAL REPORT: A large swath of the U.S. currently does not have the basic, ground-level immunity necessary to stop the spread of viruses that had once receded into the past, a six-month NBC News investigation in collaboration with scientists at Stanford University finds. https://t.co/MWLJV46yIJ

I spent the day at the ICE Detention centers where Rümeysa Öztürk and Mahmoud Khalil are being unjustly detained. They've been taken thousands of miles away from home, and denied the dignity, medical care, and due process they deserve.

This is not normal. No part of this is legal or just. My constituents deserve to live free from fear. Our freedoms and our destinies are tied.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Let me make this clear, since billionaires have been trying to play footsie with the ticket:

Anyone goes near Lina Khan and there will be an out and out brawl. And that is a promise.

She proves this admin fights for working people. It would be terrible leadership to remove her.

[Jemele Hill @jemelehill]

Let me see if I have this straight: In late September 100 Republicans voted against stopgap spending to replenish FEMA funding and although it passed, some of those same Republicans are now begging for aid. Now, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson won’t reconvene the House to vote on recovery aid that could help millions of Americans. And even worse, they are spreading massive lies and misinformation about FEMA to their constituents.

So the playbook is: Vote against a solution, campaign on the chaos they created and then blame Democrats.

Do I have this right?

[Jemele Hill @jemelehill]

Oh, so Melanie gets to choose but not millions of other women. Got it.

Intentionally blocking humanitarian aid is horrific and unacceptable.

We must uphold U.S. law & we must stop sending offensive weapons.

The Israeli military must be held accountable for the forced starvation and indiscriminate bombings of Palestinians.

A reminder that Black people are 7x more likely to be wrongly convicted of murder than white people and since the late 1980s, Black folks make up more than 50 percent of exonerations.

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

In case you wonder why I take the consequences of this election seriously.

[Ayanna Pressley @AyannaPressley]

A "justice" system that supports state-sanctioned murder is anything but just.

We must abolish the cruel, flawed, and racist death penalty once and for all.

Whiteness is a hell of a fucking drug.
