E.g. when I view:

I see:

"Enjoying jboning in the command line"

Which is both creepy and ungrammatical.

How about "Interacting with jboning on the command line"?

malgorithms commented 10 years ago

hahahaha

wait, besides the creepiness, why is that ungrammatical?

is it the "in/on" difference?

malgorithms commented 10 years ago

Either way, I changed it:

I guess there's plenty of time for me to get creepy with wording later on.

BTW, it took a lot of willpower for us not to name it keybase finger

gwillen commented 10 years ago

Yeah, to me 'on the commandline' is grammatical and 'in the commandline' is not. I guess it could be a dialect thing.

And thanks for exerting the willpower not to name it 'keybase finger'... not that it wouldn't have been great. :+1:

(Edit: "from the commandline" is also fine.)
