I’d be happy if we’d just accepted “referer” as the correct spelling for everything, but instead we have the “Referrer-Policy” header, so now I need to check the correct spelling for anything involving referring…
I do sort of like the idea that because we want to keep backwards compatibility on software we just change the language instead since that’s easier.
Great TIL, I hate it.
Excellent how the page alludes to other horrible things to imagine, like “don’t pour hot oil into your ear”, and “don’t pour it in if there’s a hole in your eardrum”
