00:01 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ ⟪Kirk (He/Him)⟫ I'm in #principia in the hopes egg can […] ⮪ I tend not to transliterate in any direction, but I am not sure I am an eggsample

00:01 <queqiao-> ⟨QeDelphyn (Xšayāršā/-ām/-āyā)⟩ Just transliterate all names, no matter […] ⮪ "erkaka enerigija" is what it should obviously be.

00:01 <queqiao-> ⟨QeDelphyn (Xšayāršā/-ām/-āyā)⟩ * probably

00:01 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ avoiding transliteration sure helps in avoiding the annoying diversity of conventions

00:02 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ > The surname Chebyshev has been transliterated in several different ways, like Tchebichef, Tchebychev, Tchebycheff, Tschebyschev, Tschebyschef, Tschebyscheff, Čebyčev, Čebyšev, Chebysheff, Chebychov, Chebyshov

00:02 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ that is missing a bunch

00:02 <queqiao-> ⟨QeDelphyn (Xšayāršā/-ām/-āyā)⟩ that's almost as bad as Shakespeare

00:02 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ including Trê-bư-sép, Cebisceff, etc.

00:02 <queqiao-> ⟨lpg⟩ those are all weird ways of spelling Trebuchet

00:03 <raptop> Consistency: there is a B

00:03 <queqiao-> ⟨Vlood⟩ ⟪QeDelphyn (Xšayāršā/-ām/-āyā)⟫ that's almost as bad as Shakespeare ⮪ i think you mean Shakspere

00:04 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ similarly instead of having to pick between Ḫammurabi and Ḫammurapi, just write 𒁹𒄩𒄠𒈬𒊏𒁉

00:08 <queqiao-> ⟨Vlood⟩ is this where i blame english for not being phonetically consistent?

00:11 <queqiao-> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_9

00:13 <queqiao-> ⟨lpg⟩ there are, of course, _multiple_ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_9#ISO/R_9

00:13 <queqiao-> ⟨QeDelphyn (Xšayāršā/-ām/-āyā)⟩ Because why have one norm when you can have multiple competing ones.

00:30 <queqiao-> ⟨QeDelphyn (Xšayāršā/-ām/-āyā)⟩ Oh no, fr*nch. The only language with worse pronounciation than English.

02:20 <_whitenotifier-7bc1> [Principia] lpgagnon opened issue #3480: Changing the sign of a flight plan delta-v value - https://github.com/mockingbirdnest/Principia/issues/3480

02:24 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ grmph. I guess we could just slap word joiners around the figure spaces 🙃

02:27 <queqiao-> ⟨lpg⟩ fwiw my main use case is starting a new flight plan by entering a negative number (I'm going to the moon, I know the capture is going to be -900). So maybe just not having a sign when the value is zero is all it takes

02:27 <queqiao-> ⟨lpg⟩ * displaying

02:28 <queqiao-> ⟨lpg⟩ or you could just tell me to get used to my spacebar not making things hot

02:29 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ good point. making a double-click grab the sign should be easy enough, but then it makes changing a negative value to another one more annoying, which seems like cooling one spacebar to warm another

02:33 <queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ > should be easy enoughhm, might be trickier than I thought, and I do not feel like reading #29. Anyway, considering the issue of changing negative values, unsigned 0 may be the best way to address that.

03:08 <queqiao-> ⟨Farrier⟩ ⟪Kirk (He/Him)⟫ The way I see it, I have three options […] ⮪ This is a complex topic, but for the sake of simplicity I would advise number 1. In USSR and sometime after companies' and brand names were transliterated, but nowadays they're mostly in Latin, though it's still fine to transliterate.

03:08 <queqiao-> ⟨Farrier⟩ Russian named companies always stay in Cyrillic though. So no Energia in Russian text.

03:10 <queqiao-> ⟨Farrier⟩ Also note, that brand names in Cyrillic should be written in quotation marks.

03:11 <queqiao-> ⟨Farrier⟩ So it's

03:11 <queqiao-> Bell и «Энергия».

03:11 <queqiao-> «Белл» и «Энергия».

03:11 <queqiao-> or

03:33 <queqiao-> ⟨Farrier⟩ Also note that brand names in Cyrillic should be written in quotation marks.

03:41 <paculino> Quotation marks, or guillemets?

03:47 <queqiao-> ⟨Farrier⟩ They all are quotation marks, but these «» are called 'pines' (or spruces?)

03:50 <queqiao-> ⟨Farrier⟩ Christmas trees, basically
