Cool stuff mate! Searching for sscanf in github produces over 19 million results with over 15 million in C code. I bet there might be few cases where it could be replaced with something else... :) (not saying it's not useful function when used correctly)

Tregren T6 kitchen garden. So relaxing to see things grow without putting too much effort in it.

Valco headphones. Price-quality wise the best you can get.

Roborock S6 maxv. Damn convenient especially if you have furry pets.

1Password. Finally got my passwords under control.

Very good point. There would be an awesome opportunity for some software engineer to create such editor (cross-platform of course). Also it could support other markup languages such as Textile as they don't differ from each other so much.

Also what would help this is that the Markdown was standardized and would have these features included out-of-the-box.

If I understood right you are asking how to get the users without advertisement...(?) I think most important thing is good and easy-to-use product. People should be able to start using the product as easily as possible. If the product is for example website, the registration and start of use should not be more than 3 clicks away.

Next thing is social visibility (for example Facebook, Twitter, blogs etc.). Especially inside look for product development and new upcoming features give the users something to wait for. Also referral programs (discount or some other benefit for people who get friends and family join to use the product) are proven to be very working concept.

Also one thing to consider is to allow people use the product for free for example for 1 month and after that either automatic or manual contact to continue the usage and start paying.

The whole thing depends a lot what kind of product you are talking about. Applications have their own channels where you can get users from for example app reviews done by some bloggers on the internet.
