Too bad that the documentation is so poor... Having PRs in Chinese is not ideal either.

- kzrdude 10y agoDo you even know how it is when not-your-own-language is the dominant one for everything in computers?
- nowayyeah 10y agoSssshhh don't point out the hypocrisy.
- ricardobeat 10y agoIs it hypocrisy? English is not my native language but I consider it the default CS language. There must be a way for us to share knowledge, and that turned out to be English.
- gbog 10y agoYes, but it is a problem. Unlike Computer languages, human languages do not only convey pure meanings, i.e. pure descriptions of relations between entities. They embed a full baggage of culture, so even if it is convenient and pragmatic to use English in CS as main language, it is not neutral, it is both an effect and a cause of the Anglo-saxon cultural, economic and military hegenomy over the world.
- provemewrong 10y agoI know how it is, and I'd take English docs over my native language any day.
