Not sure what lists you’re talking about, but it’s nerding time anyway.
The backslash (the \
symbol) is used to “escape” characters in the software world, i.e. tell the software to treat the following character as a simple symbol, not some instruction. It’s very well-known among developers, so if they happen to be the ones writing guides on Markdown (the syntax where you use asterisks and some other symbols to dictate the final layout while having the luxury of being able to edit the document in a plain-text editor), it can actually elude them because it’s mundane.
In fact, some software won’t allow you to use the backslash in short text fields such as names or passwords because doing so could potentially open up security risks where the malicious actors “inject” some instructions into software to cause all sorts of trouble. On the other hand, this is probably a redundant old measure, as there are usually other means to prevent this kind of attack today, but that’s the power of habit, I guess; and, well, if it’s a simple measure that works, there’s not much reason to get rid of it, is there?
Not if it’s treated like a social media for whatever reason.
Xing (German) and Headhunter (Russian), for instance, both allow you to hunt for jobs and browse companies all without Facebook-like posts and corporate culture.
LinkedIn is a very curious artifact of moronic cargo cult-like chase for money and market share where companies just try and copy whatever the big player did, like Facebook at the time, hoping to make loads of money for the investors and stakeholders, but the absolutely anti-human corporate culture of the US makes the place is even more moronic.
A fellow Sprecher, I see! Happy cake day!
I’m super happy that it wasn’t like Fury Road. I love Fury Road, but I don’t want to see any more attempts at recapturing that lightning, because it never worked well.
Furiosa is a great installment because it’s different and offers more than just action. One of the reasons I loved the first three films is them showing the post-apocalyptic world, giving us lore freaks something to munch over.
