That test is actually funny, in a good way; like how you said you got those links in the first place on the about page is pretty much what any experienced web dev finds out day-to-day.
Most sites I sent to it came back with plenty of false positives, mainly because htaccess rewrites resolve the URIs as query string IDs and returned empty pages with "Sorry, but the information you're looking for doesn't exist..."
Thanks for trying it out. It’s been a while but I’m sure the test checks for a 404 so if those pages gave a 404 they won’t be recognized as a false positive. I tried leaving some text about possible false positives because some people told me it can make others panic if they don’t really understand web dev well.
"but" expresses conflict, nuances and compromises. Life is not simple and our thoughts, actions and feelings are often not rational or in line with each other, there for dismissing anything before "but" is a way of actively not listening.
- "I believe in free speech, but some opinion are too abhorrent to be protected." -> Maybe free speech should not allow people to slander, extort, abuse people? Or at least not give them a jail free card.
- "I am sorry I reacted like this, but they went too far" -> This person can indeed feel sorry and feel somewhat justified, because maybe both parties involved did something worth being sorry for.
By the look of it, what this reply is saying is how point 7 describes the negating qualities of "but", while the point immediately following it uses the said word.
A heck of a lot. Some scripts, other GUI, but out of all the one-offs there are mainly 2 I use every day:
- s3d: fast(ish) image viewer. Basic but it gets the job done.
- Thoth: Text editor with FTP and note-taking features. Even though I uploaded it 2 years ago https://www.mirrorisland.com/thoth but I haven't needed to update anything on it because it does what I need just fine. I also use it to read error logs on various websites via FTP.
