"#opensource = choice, flexibility, lower costs & security!"
lol, you can read this as "lower costs and lower security"..... Not a good idea to write this that way

Proofreading: It matters!
I haven‘t typed so much in years as the last few days. I‘m having to correct #typos so much, three or four times a word sometimes, it’s really annoying.
Trying to select a word often gets the two either side of it as well, or the line above, and I wonder if that’s me or the app. Sometimes the app stops responding for a moment, though not freezing.
Even autocorrect gets it wrong occasionally when I do type a word right, giving my hands even more work.

TIL The name bonobo is meaningless; it is probably derived from a misspelling on a shipping crate going to Bolobo, Zaire (now Democratic Republic of Congo) (de Waal 1997).

@simontatham On a college essay I meant to write, "the threat of unexpected..." But instead I wrote, "the treat of unexpected..."

Shaming a publisher, in style:
