I'm in love with everything about this.

An oxfmt plugin would be appreciated!

What is the point of stating your opinion if you're not going to explain why you believe that?

Reminded me of RJSON: https://github.com/rome/tools/issues/13

In MAML, are comments preserved when reserializing?

Looks like it's pilfering Solana wallets that don't belong to Russians.

Someone could make a backup script wrapped in a GUI, but then people would have to see the "need" in order to start using it.

The bigger danger would be AT Protocol losing its biggest contributor. Unless another VC backed team appeared to fill their shoes, the protocol would stagnate and communities would slowly deteriorate. Hope is critical early on in a protocol's rise to prominence.

Just don't mistake prototyping for doing the thing.

Good enough is a self limiting fallacy.

A prototype failing to attract fans doesn't prove a lack of a market for the job the prototype attempts to perform. It only proves the prototype, as it stands, lacks something.

Beware quitting early. All good builders do.

It's too easy to "cheat" by panning around until a word toggles in the list, effectively telling you which corner of the screen the word can be found in
