First Paragraph of the readme.md in that repository.
Not to mention the two sequels World without End and A Column of Fire, set in the 1400s and 1600s, respectively, and the prequel Kingsbridge set around the year 1000.
Then there's the century trilogy which takes place in the 20th century, and a whole lot of smaller works like A Dangerous Fortune, which manages to make you care for some bankers in 19th century London.
As far as I understand it, they cannot blend the different light components nearly as well as humans do (e.g. seeing red and green at the same time and deduce that is yellow).
Markdown (.md) could and should be used for simple, somewhat structured text files. It's easy enough to learn, and WYSIWYG editors are abundant as well.
If you brick your car's firmware, at least you can keep driving without unreasonable levels of difficulty or distraction
That's impossible for a large portion of safety critical systems. Engines don't run without a controller, they literally control the fuel injection valves (and have done so for decades). Brake systems have physical failsafes for when the electronics die (I.e. basic hydraulics without the booster), but you should not be able to move a vehicle without a working brake system after it stopped.
The shitton of software running modern cars is there for good reason (at least large chunks of it), lots of which is safety, especially in the drivetrain.
It's completely different for infotainment, which I agree the vehicle should be able to function without (although the dashboard must work)
The US can't even figure out giving IDs to its citizens, what makes you think they can make a cryptographically secure voting app? Not to mention that all forms of electronic voting opens up new attack vectors, which will definitely be exploited.
Just make election day a public holiday, make mail-in voting easier and assign enough polling stations with sufficient personnel to prevent long queues.
That's only half of the issue. In fact, palm oil is entirely very space efficient compared to rape seed or other vegetable oils.
The actual issue only starts when you take into account that oil palms really only grow in south east Asia and Oceania, and the space required is obtained by cutting down rainforest.
