- toothbrush 11y agoWow, that is an atrocity i have luckily never stumbled into—do you have examples?
- kylebgorman 11y agoDon't quote me on this but I think there may have been an example of this in the most recent Stroustrup C++ book?
- gpvos 11y agoHaving a "fi" or "ff" or similar typographic ligature at all in any monospace font is a grave mistake. (Typographic as opposed to ligatures that have been promoted to letters in certain languages, such as "ß").
