Good morning. Day 3. 68km from Zevenaar to the German town of Wesel. Longest one yet. I'll try and take a picture of the border, if we don't miss it.

Just looking at the map again and the 68km is the scenic route. We might have to go for a slightly shorter one. Still 57km though.

We made it. But the hotel's restaurant hasn't opened yet this season. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« but there is a supermarket 1km away.

Does anyone know if it's possbile to format text in Jira the way that you can in Slack - not with the "painting text areas" method that we know and hate from Word, but "editing text and manually typing out markup -> hit enter and see the result" method?

simongray 2026-06-17T13:13:37.244749Z

PI planning again?

reefersleep 2026-06-17T13:14:01.228019Z

Hahaha how did you know 😁

gunnar 2026-06-17T13:17:19.604189Z

You can paste markdown into the text fields, but it doesn't have full functionality (like checklist, which it supports in the editor, just not via markdown)

reefersleep 2026-06-17T13:18:52.662559Z

It changes in place, which is a killer. I love how I can do it with Slack because it stays text until I send it, so the cursor doesn't jump around and act odd - it's just text

gunnar 2026-06-17T13:19:30.457329Z

I know. That's one thing that Github got right. Just stay out of the user's way.

reefersleep 2026-06-17T13:20:31.030179Z

Indeed! I love editing PR descriptions in Github with firenvim, vim bindings in the browser and just editing text . I only have to switch to vanilla text when dragging and dropping files and getting suggestions for @'s.

gunnar 2026-06-17T13:22:29.151729Z

Didn't know about firenvim - that's pretty sick!

reefersleep 2026-06-17T13:23:18.039919Z

It's not perfect, but it's very good πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

reefersleep 2026-06-17T13:26:31.649129Z

I haven't actually explored the "boundary" very much - it uses my terminal vim's settings in init.vim, so color theme and bindings are the same, but I bet you could find a lot of holes if you have a particular setup or try to do things related to the file system or whatever. But I just yearn for modal editing with vim bindings whenever I'm in a text field, and it's great for that.

The GH markdown parser is very good. Also in situations of nested tags, like having link descriptions with code. Everytime I am writing a slack message I get disappointed that its markdown is not as good.

reefersleep 2026-06-17T12:19:31.352839Z

The painting method makes it so hard to not fuck up.

I know that you can use markup, but it changes in-place while you're editing, which is so annoying
