that makes sense, afaict most obscenities are 白讀 with a bunch of informal spellings? i’ve definitely found MC useful for 文讀, to the hilarious effect of using hokkien to predict korean readings and vice versa. throw in cantonese and you’ve got a good time

this was six months ago but one night i looked at 鑑 / 鑒 and thought “wait a minute…” and then promptly lost my mind for 30 minutes as i realized that nobody is forcing you to keep those radicals where they are. you can just rotate them!!!
鑑 / 鑒 are variant characters of each other and the latter is what you get when you take the former’s 金 radical on the left and pull it downwards into the bottom half of the character. this forces the 皿 part of 監 into the bottom right corner of the phonological component.

i repeated this “radical rotation” process, where i rotated the 濫 in 濫用 so that the 氵 on the left became a 水 at the bottom.

for 襲擊, i reversed this process and yanked 衣 to the left, so it becomes 衤; similarly 手 moves left and becomes 扌.

for 慫恿, 心 moves left into 忄. for 感情, the heart radicals swap positions.

for 聯繫, i made a creative decision to move 耳 to the middle, instead of the bottom which is much more common. 糸 moves left and becomes 糹.

for 聳峙, 耳 moves left. but i moved 山 to the bottom. i don’t like it now, i’d probably move that to the top.

for 烈焰, i swapped the positions of 火 and 灬. this made 焰 look goofy af to me.

sometimes i’ll think i’m pronouncing a word a New Way (derogatory) but then i remember i speak taiwanese mandarin, which is actually outgunned by mainland mandarin when it comes to Neonormalized (also derogatory) readings. lemme tell ya my jaw DROPPED when i heard someone read 暴露 as <bàolù>

i’ve always thought <lājī> was the more literary reading and <lèsè> was Vernacular Shit but turns out the latter is more historic and connected to 邋遢! but you’re right, MC is less useful for hokkien. i oughta treat it closer to vietnamese

even though the MC reconstruction doesn’t work, i would still like to submit 蠹爛 as yet another spelling for the hokkien obscenity 揬𡳞, which, when flattened into mandarin, sounds like dǔlān

you need only look at india’s anti-alcohol culture to see that it turns people away from drinking way less than creating alcoholics who are ill socialized and surrounded by a toxic culture of silence and death

it's especially revealing in the context of type-checked react components because consumers _will_ write combos of props that throw fuzzer-level edge cases at you, and it's all downstream of earlier decisions like "oops, left the prop type as a product type instead of the sum type it oughta be"

程式用 React 改寫成網站,網站用 Swift 移植成應用程式,應用程式添加成就、變成遊戲,遊戲灌滿數值成為試算表,至於試算表嘛,外掛自動化,成為程式。

the Programs are rewritten in React and becoming Websites. the Websites are ported over to Swift and becoming Apps. the Apps are adding achievements and becoming Games. the Games are filled with numbers and becoming Spreadsheets. and the Spreadsheets? they're adding automation and becoming Programs.

destiny is not simply a game with content. for bungie to rebuild player trust, this also means bringing back many artists and devs. among the various feelings of betrayal, few outranked watching management cast aside the souls that lived and breathed destiny into being

apart from the known standard model of novels, novellas, and novellettes, we are yet to find evidence of the hypothesized novelino, noveletto, noveluccio, noveluzzo, or noveluolo. a great deal of work remains to be done
