ugh literally 1984

i think they mean that pronounciation matters for determing validity, not for the actual record or distinguishing between names

so John\r Doe ? depending on the software, when it gets printed, the carriage return will moves the cursor to the start of the line without moving a line down, becoming \x20Doe.

no one is “good” with regex.

im sure the devs tasked at fixing that bug loved u ;-)

look at the culture and mindset which Windows™ breeds.

“readability” is subjective. much like how there is no objective definition of “clean code”. i am not arguing that either option is more generally “readable”, i am insisting that people use a common standard regardless of your opinion on it. a bad convention is better than no convention. i dont personally like a lot of syntax conventions in languages, whether that be non-4-space indenting, curly braces on a new line, or early-declared variables. but i follow these conventions for the sake of consistency within a codebase or language, simplicity on linter/formatter choice, and not muddling up the diffs for every file.

if you want to use <br/> in a personal codebase, no-one is stopping you. i personally used to override every formatter to use 2-space indenting for example. but know that there is an official best practice, which you are not following. if you work in a shared codebase then PLEASE just follow whatever convention they have decided on, for the sake of everyone’s sanity.

Why would you want that.

a kernel module should not be written in Go

An explanation of this problem can be found on the official W3C HTML validator wiki.

HTML parsers only allow this to stop pages breaking when developers make mistakes; see this Computerphile video. ‘Able to be parsed correctly’ is not the soul criterion for it a syntax being preferred, otherwise we would all leave our <p> elements unclosed.

Yes, it is not “incorrect” to write <br/>, but it is widely considered bad practice. For one, it makes it inconsistent with XML. Linters will often even “correct” this for you.

I personally find the official style (<br>) to be more readable, but this is a matter of personal opinion. Oh, and I used to have the same stance as you, but I also used to think that Python’s whitespace-based syntax was superior…

At the end of the day, regardless of anyone’s opinion, we should come to SOME consensus…and considering that W3C already endorses <br>, we should use this style.

i had the same thing a while back. i thought i disabled onedrive from running on my machine, went to delete some onedrive files because i was “running out of space”, and deleted all the user files on my system

not even using delimeters or format specifiers for string interpolation. theyre just doing sed s/PropertyCity/../ ? rookie mistake.
