- SoKamil 1y agoThe edited one is longer. Why would you want to edit the title to make it longer?
- card_zero 1y agoNo it isn't: How I, a non-developer, read the tutorial you, a developer, wrote for me, a beginner How I, a beginner developer, read the tutorial you, a developer, wrote for me
- SoKamil 1y agoWe are kind of both correct. GP mentioned: > The title of the blog post currently is: > > How I, a non-developer, read the tutorial you, a developer, wrote for me > The HN title is: > > How I, a beginner developer, read the tutorial you, a developer, wrote for me So GP cut off , a beginner ending which in turn falsified my claim of it being longer, and I didn't verify blog title.
- rdtsc 1y agoMy apologies, SoKamil, for cutting off the ending in the comparison. I wanted to highlight the difference and figured the first part is where the difference was. As in, they are still a non-developer and shouldn't have to learn all the details so it doesn't matter if they are just a regular non-developer a beginner non-developer.
- roelschroeven 1y agoBy changing "non-developer" to "developer" (moving "beginner" from the end to the beginning doesn't really change the length). That's quite an intrusive change, it seems to me.
