 i97henka | Won't make the doc call today, sorry! | 14:34:42 |
 asymmetric | hadn't deployment of pr been fixed by delroth? | 16:21:08 |
| asymmetric | * hadn't deployment of nix.dev prs been fixed by delroth? | 16:21:13 |
| asymmetric | or am i misremembering? | 16:21:26 |
| asymmetric | huh interesting, infinisil's latest commit was deployed, but is marked as "inactive" https://github.com/NixOS/nix.dev/pull/645 | 16:22:12 |
| asymmetric | oh i see, it's because another pr was deployed in the meantime | 16:23:04 |
| asymmetric | then i don't know if this integration with github deployments is very useful, since it only keeps one deployment active: https://github.com/NixOS/nix.dev/deployments/pull%20request | 16:24:06 |
| asymmetric | whereas the action simply posts a message in a pr with a per-pr deployment | 16:24:51 |

 infinisil | Oh yeah those deployments aren't very practical for this purpose.. | 03:49:41 |

| asymmetric | Style question: do we capitalize every (important) word in titles, or just the first? | 12:46:16 |

Style question: do we capitalize every (important) word in titles, or just the first? Statistically speaking only the first. The reason is because I find that saner than learning rules that don’t apply for any other parts of the text, and I merged a lot of stuff. Would help to add that to the style guide. | 12:49:59 |

| asymmetric | wdym statistically? | 12:51:09 |
| asymmetric | fwiw i think capitalizing every important word is a known standard (e.g. APA recommends it), but i think it doesn't always look great on the web | 12:51:38 |

wdym statistically? A large part is like that | 12:57:04 |

| asymmetric | the point of standards is not necessarily that they're the most intelligent solution out there. but point taken 😉 personally, i'm fine with going for sentence-capitalization. i'll open a pr to discuss further | 12:59:58 |
 toonn | It's mostly a US - Europe divide AFAIK. | 13:16:32 |
 Minijackson | the Microsoft Style Guide recommends sentence-style capitalization: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/capitalization | 14:14:02 |
| Minijackson | wasn't there some efforts recently for adding vale to nix.dev? There's a lint for that | 14:14:52 |

| asymmetric | seems like they're breaking their own style guide here? | 14:53:49 |
| Minijackson | oh you mean "Microsoft Style Guide" ? | 14:54:22 |
| Minijackson | I guess so 😆 | 14:54:41 |

seems like they're breaking their own style guide here? We should open a PR. (not really) | 14:57:02 |
| asymmetric | i know people at microsoft, i'll call them immediately | 14:57:19 |
