- blueside 9y agoExcellent lexical analysis :) Glad to know I wasn't the only one who couldn't help but cringe while reading this.
- mattigames 9y agoText editors should have a feature to warn about a high number of qualifies/adverbs: "you are using to many qualifiers and adverbs, you may look biased to your readers, it may be a good idea to remove or rethink some of them."
- mattferderer 9y agoI suggest everyone use one of many popular & excellent tools to check your professional articles for excessive & unnecessary words & long or hard to read sentences, for example here are some amazingly free tools I really enjoy: Web App: http://beta.hemingwayapp.com/ http://beta.hemingwayapp.com/ VS Code Extension: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=travisthetechie.write-good-linter https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=travisth... (This uses open source libraries you can utilize to create your own version if you don't use VS Code)

- patmcguire 9y agoMost of them are silly, some of them are true. It is super integrated, it is fast, and it is opinionated. User-first is debatable, but it's not exactly publisher first and it's definitely not (external) advertiser first. No idea what well-lit means. I guess the takeaway is that the garden is great, build the walls higher?
