I’ve been pondering how you classify markdown as a way of creating text. Programmers like markdown and there is a tendency to in dev circles to advocate markdown for everyone.

NZ Lockdown
We are in lockdown for the first time since Feb. 170 days of freedom. It is level 4 and the government just extended 8it to mid week. It seems there are about 30 known cases of the Delta variant in the community, which means there will be more to come. The government is moving hard and fast. Having said that, we have only 20% vaccinations (I got my first one today having become eligible only last week).
Lets see how it goes.
