I think all affected websites run on google infra somehow, it's not a cloudflare problem .

(I love how we are using abreviated "infra" bcz we can't google how to write the full word)

It is funny because this is one of the very few words I learned while a kid to construct it from other parts.

So it is "infra" + "structure" but structure is common word so I need to remember how to write "infra" only.

The most bizarre one is the word "yesterday" which I memorized as "yes" + "ter" + "day" and don't ask me why "ter" because I don't remember.

How do you manage "Wednesday"?

I don't, for that I usually rely on search engine or autocorrect. I hate the fact that it is not pronounced as it is written. Because I always go with "Wenesday" on my own.

Ah, yet it's easy!

The day of Wednes. Wednes, old spelling of wedness, the state of being wed.

(So my comment is not totally useless, I'll link to the actual etymology for the ones who are now curious - my sibling comment already alluded to it)

I'm generally for spelling reform, but I like Wednesday's reference to Odin/Woden. Maybe respell it Wedensday and pronounce it like that too.

I'd go all iso format when it comes to that. do you mean "Wed SEP 3"?

Here in Turkey as well! I can ping but can't open in a browser! Working without google is fun!

Thank you for including Pluto!

Beside the problem. What a cool book!

Led to the muslim conquest of Persia, What a tragic chapter in the history of my nation!

This reminds me of Bisqwit's text editor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nlNQcKsj74&ab_channel=Bisqw... He has a super mario running on the bar which is so cool! is there a way to bring the pets to vs code bar ? bcz I usually close the side panel when I'm writing to a file and I want pets to be there when I don't have the side panel open. chat, also please let me know if you know any alternative for vim.

Now I know what to read over the next weekend!
