He’s all the worst aspects of SO personified

Oh, you want to do X?

You shouldn’t want to do X. Here are all the reasons X isn’t good. We don’t support X and your thinking is wrong.

With these people you just have to ask basic questions and hide your thought process. They will use whatever extra info you give them to avoid having to do any actual work/ problem solving

[\ -\/\[-\`\:-\@\{-\~]

Can you explain how this matches ?

but question mark gets caught in this filter.


 def symbols_regex
    /[\ -\/\[-\`\:-\@\{-\~]/m
  end

  def seems_pronounceable?
    # At least some non-symbol characters
    # (We don't have a comprehensive list of symbols, but this will eliminate some noise)
    @text.gsub(symbols_regex, '').size > 0
end

Thought I was average at regex but man that confuses me.

oh these fucking popout things i couldn’t even tell the url changed.

is there some type of symbol range that i just didn’t know about

Yep this was the answer

It’s matching ascii 58 thru 92

Which actually now seems weirder because that includes full alphabet of capital letters
