Adam Bernot @bernot.dev · 24/07/2025I don't understand how saying "backslash" in URLs became a mainstream mix-up.

I'm starting a movement. #JustSaySlash 110

Reposted by Adam BernotSarah Drasner @sarahedo.bsky.social · 10/04/2025A piece of collateral damage in this new age is lack of understanding of the value of infrastructure. Quality infrastructure takes creativity, it’s fascinating, it’s crucial. We’ve lost the plot, relegating it to being described as a cost center. Infrastructure is muscle, infrastructure is bone. 621350
