For some reason that "An" irks me way more than it should.

For some reason that "An" irks me way more than it should.
- steveklabnik 16y agoIn a related matter, I smiled when I saw this: https://github.com/krainboltgreene/learn-you-an-ruby-for-awesome-power/issues/closed#issue/2 https://github.com/krainboltgreene/learn-you-an-ruby-for-awe...
- krainboltgreene 16y agoTrust me, I feel like that much more of a dweeb when I tell people out loud. "I'm writing a book, Learn You...(whisper)an ruby(whisper)...For awesome Power"
- wwortiz 16y agoWell I dare say why not keep going with the trend and have it something like Learn you the Ruby for great good! (At least that hurts a bit less :))
- krainboltgreene 16y agoOh man! Shucks. "The" would have been so much better :/ I need an INTERNET search and replace.
- rquirk 16y agoJust change it now, the internet will catch up. The sooner you do it, the better. Obviously only do it if you really want to change the title. (FWIW I don't really like the "an" either, sorry!)
- citricsquid 16y agoThe unclosed parenthesis is irking me more, he opened it in paragraph 2 and never closes it!
- AgentConundrum 16y agoThe "Learn You A Haskell" link that points to a page for Learn You Some Erlang is what got me. (though I don't mean to make this a thread for criticizing the author)
- krainboltgreene 16y agoAck, both fixed. Actually, that's a lie. They aren't errors. Bonus500 once spurned my love so I secretly redirect users to Learn You Some Erlang, instead of Learn You A Haskell. :(
- mdonahoe 16y agowhy is there an "An"?
- krainboltgreene 16y agoIt's kinda explained here: https://github.com/krainboltgreene/learn-you-an-ruby-for-awesome-power/issues/closed#issue/2 https://github.com/krainboltgreene/learn-you-an-ruby-for-awe...
- jemfinch 16y agoThat's a 404 now.
- krainboltgreene 16y agoYeah, the issue got closed. Github should really fix that.
- pjhyett 16y agoThe entire repo was deleted.
- krainboltgreene 16y agoOops, right. No I just renamed it: https://github.com/krainboltgreene/learn-you-the-ruby-for-awesome-power https://github.com/krainboltgreene/learn-you-the-ruby-for-aw...
