Project mention: Siyuan: Privacy-first, self-hosted personal knowledge management software | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-12-25
I can also recommend Trilium Notes [1], which I have been happily using for years. It's currently in "maintenance mode", which I personally see as a feature (no risk of bloatware).
Self-hosted, great webapp, optional native clients and works offline.

I guess this is a competitor to services such as overleaf [1] and codimd [2]. Although this is yet another syntax, it seems to be supported by pandoc [3]. Lately, I have been using Quarto [4] more and more as I program in R, which also produces very nice outputs, especially HTML. But none of these solve the academic usage problems of (1) producing nice diffs for reviewers, and (2) can easily be shared with, and commented by, non-technical collaborators. Thus, I fear Word will be difficult to replace for many years, at least in my field, for scientific writing

> The diagrams in particular are very clear. (They seem to have been done in draw.io: https://github.com/8dcc/8dcc.github.io/blob/main/img/pool-al... which seems to be a pretty decent Apache-2.0 free software licensed diagram editor: https://github.com/jgraph/drawio/)
Yes, this is true. Furthermore, the diagram information for draw.io is included in the SVG images themselves, so one could edit them there.
> It says, "The pool allocator, however, is much faster than malloc", but doesn't provide any benchmarks or even an order of magnitude.
You are right, I was referring to "malloc-like" allocators (i.e. for variable-size blocks). It would be a good idea to benchmark them.
