Saw this a while ago and it solves that "paradox" nicely.

Is this supposed to link to something? I'm just seeing an image.
I wouldn't think anti-collision systems would be feasible on a container ship: they're too big with too much inertia. It can take miles to slow to a stop or execute a turn. It's not like a car, where you can just hit the brakes and have immediate results. All that extra braking and re-accelarating would burn a bunch more fuel, too.
That looks interesting, thanks! I'll check it out too see if it might be suitable.
I've been doing a lot with organizing my data in Obsidian, and I've found utility in having both folders and metadata. Using the Dataview plugin makes proper metadata fields really powerful; you basically turn your collection of markdown files into a NoSQL DB. Having a folder structure is handy too though because you can have different metadata templates applied to new files in different folders with the Templater plugin.
Obviously that is dependent on a fairly specific workflow, but I think it's worth considering "why not both?"
I keep taking about wanting to use markdown files for contacts and policies at work, stored in reports repos for change tracking. The problem is always "the legal team isn't going to use Git". What I'd love to see is a front end for Git that allows direct markdown editing and emulates the Track Changes feature in Word.
Why wouldn't you go into specifics? This comes off as clickbait: "Mastodon user FURIOUS about this one thing; click for details!"
Cinnamon is awesome on pepperoni pizza; throw it on before baking.
Eldrow is pretty entertaining, though it's not really limited to once a day. You pick a word and the computer makes guesses until it figures it out.

No, that's an escape character. You have to double up on it for it to show up.
To alert to, sure. It makes car-like automatic braking infeasible though, unless we're looking exclusively at stationary objects like bridges, which are only present for a miniscule fraction of a container ship's travels; they won't have time to react when a sailboat suddenly tacks across your bow, for example. And it certainly won't help when the ship is without power and drifting, like the one that hit the Key bridge.
