Linguistic Antipatterns

In plain words

Linguistic Antipatterns is a tool launched in 2022 that identifies and highlights problematic language patterns in writing. It targets writers, editors, and content creators who want to improve clarity and consistency in their work. The tool scans text to flag common linguistic mistakes and awkward phrasing, helping users refine their writing by pointing out patterns to avoid.

Contribute Linguistic Antipatterns This is a website to teach you to identify and fix linguistic antipatterns in your code What is a linguistic antipattern ? Have you ever had a gnarly bug, or even just a frustrating coding session, that could be ultimately traced back to something that just didn't do what you thought it did based on the name? We certainly have. These can be caused by two people who interpret a word differently, or one person making too many assumptions by themselves. But more often than not, they're caused by a problem where the name predictably leads people to believe a function does something it simply doesn't. The ways in which this happens are linqusitic antipatterns.…from linguistic-antipatterns.com

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Pornpen.ai – AI-Generated Porn▲711

  Hey HN, I've been working on https://pornpen.ai, a site for generating adult images. Please only visit the site if you are 18+ and willing to look at NSFW images. This site is an experiment using newer text-to-image models. I explicitly removed the ability to specify custom text to avoid harmful imagery from being generated. New tags will be added once the prompt-engineering algorithm is fine-tuned further. If the servers are overloaded, take a look at the feed and search pages to look through past results.
