@akkartik oh my. i love the kind of bespoke, small use software you advocate, but it’d be silly to devote time to this.

i end up doing most of my markdown in emacs, but i like a WSIWYGish app that syncs between phone and laptop for getting started, a way to short circuit my pretty strong writing aversion by jotting a first draft anywhere.

i’ve been using the notetaking app craft, but i’m finding it quirky, somewhat disappointing recently. so i’m wondering if there are similar apps people love.

@buermann i do a lot of that in emacs!

but i’ve found it convenient to start first drafts in an app accessible on all my devices, then to export into emacs as markdown and go through my rounds of editing there.

i guess it’s an attempt to minimize the psychological barrier to entry of getting started. i can jot something on a phone app, rather than “sit down for a session”. my psychological barrier to opening up an emacs buffer is somehow lower for writing code than text.

What's your favorite writing environment that exports nicely to markdown?

// great point.

it used to be “apres moi, le deluge”, but now every political actor makes its case as “sans moi, le deluge.” our politics has given up on hope for the efficiency of blackmail.

@Akshay @40Years There is no other conflict in the world where a “refugee organization” maintains a population in permanent settlements described ad “refugee camps” rather than seeking to find third-countries to resettle them. 1/

@Akshay @40Years Yes, the conflict always was going to require a political settlement, but UNRWA was designed to maintain pressure + create demographic realities in order to sustain and enhance “facts on the ground” that might shape a potential settlement that could only be resisted at increasingly brutal cost. Most wars that displace populations do resolve, with political settlements that are easier to reach, when in the usual case, most of the displaced do not return. 2/

@Akshay @40Years There are bitter ironies in all this. In recent decades, Israel adopted the same “facts on the ground” approach to the conflict that Arab states pioneered in shaping UNRWA. And the governments of several states that did shape UNRWA, now threatened by Iran, now wish their predecessors had not locked in “facts on the ground” that would make alliance with Israel very difficult. 3/

in reply to self

@Akshay @40Years But the basic brutal fact is that wars displace people, and usually permanent settlements involve many of the displaced finding new lives elsewhere. It is ethnic cleansing, but that is a fact that attends most wars. To prevent ethnic cleansing, you have to build a peaceful coexistence. 4/

in reply to self

@Akshay @40Years After a war to demand return, or to create conditions that presuppose it, when hostile nationalisms are more provoked than before the conflict, is simply to preserve the conflict rather than to find means for the parties to move on. And that has been UNRWA’s role. /fin
