re: Hot Masking Take
@gaditb okay but now i’m going to flip this on its head and ask about masking as a self‐defence mechanism
them: well this scraper doesn't have the flaws you were talking about, surely it must be okay
everyone else: oh, clearly the flaws i enumerated were too specific and there must be a more fundamental way of phrasing things; let's try that again
(scraper still bad tho)
@SportsGoblin hey making it to the playoffs against all odds and then immediately losing against a clearly better team is what the narrative arc for the seahawks is SUPPOSED to be

burnet: senpai…

@alyssa what?
« My friend Fennel is researching dreams too.
I got to know her when we were students.

on reordering names in translation
@clarfonthey person as a person from a culture which uses western ordering, i prefer the original ordering be preserved, with the following notes
• if it's not clear to readers whether the name is using an eastern or western order, the family name should be written in allcaps
• although japanese names have historically switched order upon translation to english, some style guides are starting to reverse that trend. see https://www.cnn.com/2019/05/21/asia/japan-name-abe-shinzo-intl/index.html for an example
• chinese names should never be written in western order (chairman mao = mao zedong)
