I used to put two spaces after sentences because people told me it is the correct thing to do. Now I put one space after a sentence because different people told me it is the correct thing to do. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
For years, I kept my wifi with the passphrase “This is my passphrase. There are many like it, but this one is mine.” Without the quotes of course. With two spaces after the period.
At this point I am not going to overcome forty years of muscle memory. I assume whatever tool is doing the rendering will make things right according to the current convention.
I'm beginning to doubt if there was any humor there in the first place.
> When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
I mean if it had been a French city I could say that a pun about French Spacing is there in the joke. But Rome isn't a French city. So still very confused if and what the joke is.
