i·e·t·f publishes like 200 r·f·c’s a year that’s way more than pokémon

unlike pokémon tho there do exist bad w3 specifications

w3 specofications are KIND OF like pokémon

hm <https://www.w3.org/TR/dx-prof/>

hey you know that part of the specification which is frankly underspecified and generally requires reading between the lines and carrying forward expectations made in different documents in order to even understand what the appropriate behaviour is? well i depend on that

*xsltproc

oh my god reproducing this bug in xslt is so difficult

some OWL processors attach significance to the namespaces which are declared on the root rdf:RDF element so it is important to ensure that all of the namespaces which appear in the ontology are actually declared there

but XSLT 1.0 has very very limited namespace node support, afaict limited only to copying (and even that is a grey area), so you have to do something like this in an earlier stage to create the namespace nodes so that they are there to copy

<template match="Ontology" priority="2">
<text disable-output-escaping="yes">&lt;owl:Ontology</text>
<for-each select="declare">
<text> xmlns</text>
<if test="normalize-space(prefix)!=''">
<text>:</text>
</if>
<value-of select="normalize-space(prefix)"/>
<text>=&quot;</text>
<value-of select="normalize-space(namespace)"/>
<text>&quot;</text>
</for-each>
<text disable-output-escaping="yes">&gt;</text>
&continue;
<text disable-output-escaping="yes">&lt;/owl:Ontology&gt;</text>
</template>

this is fine

granted H·O·A·H 1 & 2 were individually shorter but they were longer combined

harmony of a hunter returns is such a long album how did i ever have time for this shit (the previous two albums) as a kid

for you japanese scholars out there, know the old english scholars are just as salty about unicode unification practices

i don’t want the unicode consortium to know about this because they will Not like it but also, hey medievalists, it works

medievalists: *constantly petitioning unicode for privateuse variation selectors*

me, who successfully petitioned Junicode to capitalize on a specification grey area and just use tag characters for exactly this purpose:

it’s the ANARCHISTS who let things run unchecked amok

i make this post but actually the communists i’ve known have, generally speaking, had some of the worst mental health problems and yet some of the best, most highly-developed toolkits for dealing with them, which absolutely involved a theory of historical materialism to at least a small degree

girls who call themselves marxists

but reject empericism, scientific approaches to historical analysis, and dialectical praxes in favour of idealistic imaginaries that they can never reach

but only when it comes to their own happiness and mental health

we don’t know for a fact that Meowth didn’t teach himself to speak thru Talmudic study

is Meowth (Team Rocket) jewish?
