Kind of interesting to ponder how much changed in my personal and professional life since I last posted here. New team, new title (and all that .NET Aspire work in between), new baby. Still on Threads too, but I guess I'll see how much momentum this place gets this time...
Not really. Though it's not like they have an excuse on infrastructure.
I'd say I say "dayta" more and I'm from the US. Though perhaps being partially deaf makes me a little more sensitive to pronunciation and enunciation of some similar sounding words? <shrugs> And yeah, that last one (caysh) I have literally never heard. "cash" or "cashay" I've heard, but not "caysh"
Hey @pfrazee.com did I just somehow post in the future? And if so... any creative ideas on how to take advantage of this? (from the web app)
Though I do think I change D/E based on the phonetics of the prior word. "A database" (pronounced "uh daytabase") vs "A database" (pronounced "Ay dahtabase"), maybe in a feedble attempt to differentiate the first two syllables?
"Where it is in a sentence" might have been a bit too precise... I just sometimes say both. I _think_ the first one is because I learned it from READING "kludge" and pronounced that phonetically... and then also HEARING "kluge" (C) and then thinking it was the same word. And now I'm all mixed up
As I tried to figure out my answer to this, I realized that I say the first three both ways depending on where it is in a sentence.
People who park in the clearly-marked drive-up/pick-up parking spaces at stores and then go into the store: Why?
