There are plenty of people who close an error message before reading it. Quite often, you can just google the error message to find instructions on how to fix it. But most people don't even do that.

Why double down when instead you can admit that it's awkward to use that word in that context?
Automation is a widely-used word. Automatization is not.
That reminds me of people who write "defiantly" instead of "definitely." Sure, "defiantly" really is a word. But I don't think it's the word you meant to write.
Just look at the difference in popularity between the two words:
https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?geo=US&q=automatization,automation
Not everything is an insult or attack. It's okay to admit when someone else's correction is right. But I think people have a knee-jerk reaction of defending something no matter what. But that's not how you grow as a person.

511 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9040 02:45

Except it's not a case of using a literally incorrect word, but of using a less-common but still correct synonym. Like writing “Ϋ‚ή instead of ˆω‚ή.

> Automation is a widely-used word. Automatization is not.

So? Neither is incorrect, whereas defiantly is blatantly incorrect and does mean something completely different from what was intended to convey on any dictionary. You're splitting hairs here, yikes man. Note that is is not intended as an insult or an attack. I'm just pointing out that your suggestion, while not without merit, is pointless and not needed, and also completely tangential, while we are at it.

You know what's funny about liberals? They blame Russia for everything and imply that Russians are evil and America is great. But at the same time, Russia is communist, whereas America is capitalist. Yet American liberals say communism is great.

If you like communism so much, live in Russia. But wait, that would go against your "everything is Russia's fault" narrative.

Maybe communism would be good for obese Americans. After all, communism is the most efficient way to lose weight. The only problem is... you just keep losing it until you die. You either die of starvation or get gulag'd or disappeared for being anti-communist. That is the endgame for communist regimes.

Morons who don't study history think communism means everyone will live in an egalitarian utopia. Historically, that has never been the case. It's also the communist party that's elite, rich, and powerful, while everyone else is poor as fuck. That's not any better than our current economic issues. In fact, it's even worse.

You need to come up with realistic plans instead of idealized bullshit that will never work in reality. Communism doesn't work. Just because capitalism is flawed doesn't mean communism is the answer. That's a stupid thing to say. Mao, Pol Pot, Lenin, Stalin -- extreme death tolls under actual communism.

Venezuela is socialist. And just look at how well they're doing. You know another socialist party? Germany's National Socialist party (aka Nazis). Guess what? It didn't work economically (not to mention the other issues).

Socialism doesn't work. Communism doesn't work. Capitalism doesn't work. We need to think outside the box.

VATS is not the equivalent of aimed shots from the isometric games. The equivalent of aimed shots is, aiming at something(eg an enemy's leg) and shooting it. More importantly every single character in the game could do that, VATS is special player character magic.

>>515 Language is a beautiful fascinating thing, but it's sad when it's stifled by that kind of mindset. I guess sometimes some people maybe try too hard to sound smart, and that can be a bit annoying, but not as annoying as when someone thinks that's the only reason people use a wider vocabulary. Not as annoying as using "neckbeardy" as an adjective, that made my skin crawl!

535 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9040 17:41

It's cool that language is an ever-evolving entity, but semantic drift caused by a large amount of dunderheads misusing words is a personal peeve. It's always been stupid when someone uses the word "literally" just as emphasis or exaggeration rather than its true meaning, but I read they recently added this alternate sense of the word to the dictionary! Don't worry, I'll get over it.

536 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9040 18:05

This is not a new "problem", you know that the words 'really' and 'very' used to mean the same thing as 'literally', right?

>I read they recently added this alternate sense of the word to the dictionary!

I guess if you consider the 1760s "recent" then maybe?

>>540 Nice googling old boy, but take another second to read before you post next time. I never said it was a problem, I said it was a peeve. It was apparently 2013 they updated the definition, so not quite as recent as I thought - but the point I was making was that because a word gained enough widespread misuse amongst the dim majority, they just updated the definition to compensate, lowered the bar if you will. Like I said, I love how language is always evolving, it's sad that the driving force in this case is common ignorance, that's all.

Another example, when my friend says "I made the ultimate sandwich yesterday", I know he means he made an amazing sandwich, maybe one of the greatest, but in my head I still always think "I bet he's gonna make another sandwich pretty soon."

There's just no nice way of distinguishing a macro from a function, or figuring out what exactly a macro applies to. At least not with how much/little I've fleshed the thing out.
So I'm going to kick-ass-ify the interpreter and make it super flexible, so you can metaprogram how you want.
