Dmitri's magnum opus on Go style is basically a shrine to #nitpicking 
, where even the smallest deviation from the sacred Go gospel is meticulously cataloged for eternity. 
Why bother rewriting rationale when you can just send a link, right?

Pedantic side note about the Trump sucking Musk's toe's fake that played in the HUD building the other day. I've seen people on here, and apparently the BlueSky moderators (briefly), claiming it was sexually explicit.

There's a certain kind of pedant who insists that it should be pronounced with [s] as in "sit", but I see no reason why this pronunciation, derived from middle and early modern English spelling, should be regarded as more "correct" than the pronunciation that follows the post 17h century Hellenized spelling and reflects the word's Greek roots.
Wouldn't it be more correct to call it Unboxing Day

#Pedantry It's just "Eagles". 
Just saying #Pedantry should be one of the Deadly Sins.
I ordered a PCB a week ago, generously sponsored by #pcbway. I've just now realised the board is only 4 mm in one dimension off being the same size as a standard ISO7810 credit card. Dangit! Something for v1.3.
Bill Cole Not ALL painkillers…
Only the ones which don’t need a physical signed prescription and a government ID to get.
Only the ones that reduce fever.

What’s weird is it isn’t anti-inflammatory drugs; the effect is still seen with acetaminophen.
Knowing this and assuming you aren’t already completely entranced by the vampire, this is exactly what you need to say. At least that’s what I think. Muster all your willpower and let spill these five words from your lips.
