You could use this spot to add some markdown shortcuts.

There are keyboard shortcuts, but agree. Some buttons could be useful. Especially for making tables and more similar complex elements.

The approach is not yet final, but writing tools are probably going to be split in two parts.
The 1st is what you’re describing (I’m also imagining it being floaty), the 2nd part will be an attempt to introduce a non-overwhelming fully fledged editor

Ocean's stats were screwed up this AM (#1197055), but they say it's cause "a huge miner" started mining with them.

This morning I received a panicked message from a friend. He received an email that his non-profit was getting sued for copyright infringement and if I could put him in touch with a good lawyer on what to do. He noted that he hadn't clicked any links yet, so I said sure, but how about you grab the plain source of the email and send that to me, so that I can check if you're not being scammed into something.
  1. The from email address was a dkim-enabled edu.vn sub-sub-sub domain
  2. Google let it through with a spam rating of -1.8 because dkim checked out
  3. Their private mailserver let it through because dkim checked out
  4. The mail was written in acceptable French (I could understand most of it and my French kinda sucks)
  5. The "evidence" wasn't attached but linked (normal for lawyers) but went to rebrandly.com - not too normal for lawyers.
  6. I tor-proxied curl and fetched it, after 5 redirects it came to some page that tries to script redirect to a zipfile
  7. I downloaded the zipfile (also tor-proxied) and read it with a throwaway user
  8. Turned out to be a rar file, so i did rar -t on it.
  9. Contents: an .exe, a .dll and a script; i.e. this is a trojan.
Saved my friend 500k sats retainer money, in 5 minutes. Yay.

Confirm: The White House tried to talk to PM Modi several times.
But India’s PMO REFUSED — citing a “TRUST DEFICIT”
There was no confidence about how the US will present the conversation between the two top leaders.
It means German Report was correct

One of the best things I've learned is to stay away from any agents (middlemen) if you want to get things done in a pleasant way.

Ivan’s teacher _____ him to go for the outdoor camp as she managed to address his concerns and soothe his anxiety.
  1. convinced
  2. persuaded
  3. suggested
  4. recommended
Came up with this question for my fifth graders. What do you think the answer is? ☝🏻

3 and 4 seem obviously wrong ('suggested/recommended he should go') 1 and 2 are close, but here persuasion leads to action Hence, I vote 2.
