John Gruber, the creator of Markdown, commenting on Markdown editors and their trend towards hiding the syntax:
Maybe I don’t know much about Markdown, but my understanding is that the whole point of it is to provide a syntax where the most common HTML tags for prose can be replaced by simple punctuation characters that are meant to be visible to the writer.
A joke so dry you’ll need a glass of water when you get it.
