Apostrophes are delimited with a control character (/') in old posts.

Quote from: Jeff Hopkins '82 on September 29, 2025, 02:31:22 PMJust an FYI, my username includes an apostrophe, which is apparently an illegal character.  Fortunately, I just deleted the apostrophe and it let me log in.

I think we call them "undocumented characters" now.

Surely "TERRORIST characters." 

They're not sending their best. They're not sending U. They're sending special characters that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems here. They're bringing dipthongs. They're bringing ßs. They're punctuation.  And some, I assume, are good characters."

QuoteCornell is cancelling a distinguished professor's classes on Gaza and suspending him because of the complaints of a student who previously served in Israel's military surveillance agency and was literally recording the comments of other students in class and deliberately derailing discussion.

Also I think I speak for... well, just me but maybe others would agree.  If the back catalog of 260k posts is holding down efficiency or costing $$$, I for one, as the author of 8% of them, and probably 40% of the total bitcount of the content of this site, would be fine if you just flushed everything and started us over fresh and clean.  Or everything before say 10/1/24 if that freaks people out.

This is honestly perfect.  Just leave it like this.  Don't put any of your time into aesthetics, this is so clean and easy to read I think any change would probably be towards enshittification.

Thank you again, this is a gift!

Quote from: TrotskyAnybody need a job?

Note: 25 qualifications for $25/hr.

No longer available. Guess someone was qualified.
Or nobody and they pulled the req.

I'd go but it's not my job to lose.

Running well between the hashmarks.

This feels as unsustainable as a Mets lead in the standings but I'll take it while it lasts.

Page sneak.  7-0.  5:50 to go in the 1st qtr.

1st drive 4th down defensive stop!  Nice job.  Great recovery after a 63-yard Yale KO return.
