You will want to check your local laws on this one. Where I am the minimum speed limit is 20mph below the maximum unless otherwise posted (usually on highways where it will be posted 85/60 or something).
Sounds like you can drive slower.
I can. But your local laws may differ.
I see, I thought you were pointing out that some jurisdictions have minimums while others don’t. I also made the assumption that a minimum being the same as a maximum would never happen.
I’d be curious to learn of an area that says the minimum is the same as the maximum. Seems a bit… strange.
So you can slow down. This graphic was made because people always bicker about these things.
Off topic nitpick: If you use
>for quotes instead of triple backticks, it wraps the text better (at least in firefox)vs
>is typically for quotes, and the backticks for code, too.I did that intentionally, for dramatic effect. I wasn’t quoting anyone. Thanks for offering to help, though.
Italics would have been more standard.
formatting it as code means I now need to scroll sideways to read it. Maybe it's better on mobile or in whatever app you're using, but codeblocks don't auto-wrap when they reach the end of the line on my computer.
Interesting, your client is to blame for that. No scrolling in Voyager. Anything that does not soft wrap text in a context like this isn’t taking mobile seriously.
I don't think markdown wraps codeblocks by default, since code can be whitespace sensitive.
That’s why I said soft wrap.
Again, I'm on a computer. I'm using a desktop. Firefox is rendering the codeblock with a scrollbar on the bottom.
Edit: firefox on my android does the same thing. It puts a scrollbar on the bottom.
