I've sometimes wondered why on elevators it tends to say "maximum 10 persons" and not people.

My youngest texted me this:

Its harder when someone else doesn't tell you who to look at and read.

Hashtags do the work of finding affinities. Search for in the resulting column, at the top is a 'follow' icon.

If you click the icon, that Hashtag will be followed as if it were a person. Follow several, even many.

You will see good accounts, dont just follow the best, see their followers, and follow them.👈

You will follow someone you later unfollow, its ok.

Why does English have so many words that can be used for totally different meanings.. Tonight it struck me with “I place something in a place”. In this example place can be an action or a location.

What's with randomly putting a question mark at the end of statements these days? It confuses the hell out of me

e.g. "You should go outside?"

Either write "Should you go outside?" OR "You should go outside". Then I know how to respond.

Is it to make it sound softer; less directive?

If it is, find a different way. All it does is mashup your intention. Stop!

The correct spelling is
SCHOOL not
SCHOOL.
Some people put the second O before the first O which is very wrong.

I've spent a good chunk of the past two days (re)designing a font for one of my Z80-based projects and now after like 7 or 8 years, I need to actually formally define the storage format and document the stuff. It's looking a lot better now, though!
