December 11, 2017 - English-Centrism in Software and Online

Maria and Phil examine the Anglocentrism in software and online, including chararacter limits on Twitter, character sets not adapted to displaying special characters, and poor writing resulting from code that does not accommodate non-English grammar.

Corrections: A character is represented by a sequence of bits, not bytes. Lyapis Trubetskoy is a Belorussian, not Russian, band.
