Is anyone else seeing the strange lack of spaces? Multiple words throughout the blog post show up concatenated for me, so it seems like a weird transmission bug, not one typo.
- rconti 7y agoYeah, it seems like an extremely broken font. (Safari, OS X, on a vertical 1080p monitor so my window is pretty narrow)
- baddox 7y agoThe HTML markup is very strange. There are a bunch of spans around various characters, words, and sequences of words, and sometimes there are non-breaking spaces in seemingly random spots. Chrome and iOS Safari both seem confused about how to render the text and how to handle "word" selection (i.e. double-clicking). My guess would be this is the output of some web-based rich text editor from the blog engine or CMS. Or it could be some sort of obfuscation system to circumvent adblockers or prevent scraping, although that doesn't make a lot of sense in this context.
- fareesh 7y agoSomeone probably copied and pasted from somewhere into a JS rich text editor that converted it into html.
- geuis 7y agoYeah I’m seeing that also.
- yoz-y 7y agoInteresting! At first I thought it was typed on a broken macbook keyboard.
- fierarul 7y agoAlmost looks written hastily in one editor then copy-pasted into the website.
