Hi, English isn’t my mother tongue so I was asking myself that question since I first encounted a w/… Back then I was like: “What tf does ‘w slash’ stand for?” And when I found out I was like “How, why, and is it any intuitive?” But I never dared to ask that until now
In programmer lingo we’ll sometimes shorten words with the number of letters in between:
i18n (internationalization) and L10n (localization). I just learned of g11n (globalization), too.
Wait until you learn about k8s
No thanks!

Just start using it for everything and confuse everyone… I mean E6E
This one is terrible IMO. A11y is ironically very inaccessible unless you’re aware of this unintuitive system.
Now that I know it though, it’s a good way to distinguish between similar common abbreviations. For instance I know you don’t mean “Actually” even though I’m not sure what you do mean by A11y.
Accessibility I think :-)
Oh, really!? That’s a good one for me to learn! (Spouse is a quad who uses a lot of computer A11y aids)
Also k8s for Kubernetes.
Wait. That is why it’s called i18n!? Never knew that.
True, forgot about that one. I really hat this style of abbreviation^^

You’ll be a hero at work when your coworkers see how efficient your commit messages have become.
Clearly the next step in evolution will be this…
The information you see is only the identifier and metadata, the main content will be transferred directly via the neural transceiver.
