That's a pretty cool thread. I guess I should find friends in real life (also known as 'meatspace') Note: that's literally what I think, I'm not trying to sound smug , neither am saying this ironically. Stupid limit

There is also an allure of having a client that will never run some weird god-know-what-doing javascript code. Of course you can just disable javascript in your HTTP browser. But as the author states, it's easier to write a completely

...and then other people tried to use this word to advocate language reforms, of course. All I want to say is that this word doesn't make me feel there's need to change spelling rules. Other examples, like dough-through-enough are

Was there such a point? The person who invented this spelling was 21 years old, if I'm reading the article correctly. Who knows, maybe the entire point of inventing it was to impress opposite sex.

Yes, you are right. I should have said «..."ough" at the end of a word hints heavily ...» I am kind of pissed off how article attacks english language. Of course if you interpreter a letter without a context you will have silly re

I think this example is far-fetched and, due to being so far-fetched, is useless. I mean there are no actual english words where "gh" at the beginning of a word would be pronounced as "f", right? And "gh" at th

Minor correction. Telegram does not use its own crypto, it uses well-known cryptographic primitives. (However community criticised telegram for the poor choice of those well-known primitives)

I might be wrong, but I think "paravirtualized" means that you don't have to modify your kernel to work with virtual CPU / virtual memory. It doesn't mean "guest isn't aware it's being virtualized&quo
