Webpages should use headings for <footer> and <header> #markup?

@mahryekuh wrote about it at marijkeluttekes.dev/blog/artic

If you have only 1 footer and 1 header that could be good.

But… what's about pages having more such footer and header markup in complex pages like blogs?
IMHO that would "pollute" markup for assistive devices, and give a mess – am i wrong?

During 1992–2020, the USA had low and stable #inflation.

Despite massive federal deficit spending, the Fed met its 2% inflation target (or missed below it) for most of this era.

How come? There were no serious shortage of resources. (Thanks to: no cold war, globalization, bad working conditions, stable commodity supply, increase of greenhouse effect.)

I think it's been 42 days since I started working, and I just realized today is the first day I've spent entirely just *using* the system I've been building.

And I've finally got a number of pages of text written actually documenting, demonstrating, and *finally* explaining my project.

And I'm actually *using* my system to compose and live-preview text as I work and finding I love this weird little stack as an actual tool that I actually enjoy using.

@amoroso My thoughts:

- They mix up Markdown with the general term lightweight #markup language (as if #Markdown is the only #LML syntax)

- They ignore all other markup syntax examples such as (La)TeX, HTML, ...

- great screenshots of Word for DOS upwards 👍

- the title should be "#WYSIWYG vs. LML" (instead of the Word vs. Markdown story)

- no mentioning of other LML examples

Well it looks, as if we're settling for a mediocre standard again.

@Xhuul I haven't found any decent #Markdown editor yet that convinced me.

And yes, I prefer Emacs with #orgmode.

I even write my text in Org and use the export-to-MD functions to generate the appropriate #MD.

That also saves me from remembering the MD-specifics of the current export target. I always mix up the MD flavors currently at hand because I need to use different MD-enabled tools on a daily basis and all of them have their special markup variants - sometimes it's even necessary to use, e.g., different table syntax (within the same MD tool!) for different table properties such as line breaks and stuff. It's really a bad mess with MD. 😔

TIL in #orgmode a line containing only a U+0009 CHARACTER TABULATION is considered a ‘blank line’. A line containing only a U+00A0 NO-BREAK SPACE is not a blank line.

I am making the assumption here that .org files are to be read acc. to (at least) ISO 8859-1. Org does not state which file encoding may be used.
