Missed a word: LLM powered tools (CLIs, etc.) that can work over files easily. Nothing in Obsidian itself, though I'm sure some nice plugins will exist
Back when I was looking for a new PKM system, I remember a "competitor" (now irrelevant) of obsidian making fun via Quote tweet of the Files over app manifesto, saying something like "nobody cares about the way the notes are stored". Ironically, that mean-spirited tweet made me discover Obsidian, and I've adopted it since then as I strongly agree with the philosophy of sovereignty over the content by them being plain files.
I do care about how files are stored, felt trapped with OneNote proprietary format, and seeing what happens to Evernote, now care even more.
Doesn't surprise me. Not sure what stereotypical Republican you have in your mind, but I'd assume it's the kids that hate government assistance like food stamps.
They hate government programs that promote lifelong government assistance and discourage work for those they think shouldn't need it.
This government program is literally the opposite long term goal: it encourages work, and hopes to reduce government assistance after this one-time program is finished.

Isn't that the same law that understands and bans cloud providers egress fees? Seems they have a good understanding of current state of technology, citing credible sources like Cloudflare.
