We took the US citizenship test in the first session of my first political science class back in college. Myself and a couple of others were the only ones to pass.
I use two spaces because I’ve been typing for a long time, lol
Good eye! I still do it because, to my eyes, it makes it easier to indicate sentence boundaries while skimming the text.
Some people say this is “wrong”, and I won’t enforce it on anyone, but I do it when I’m writing my own text. Not only do I like how it looks, but it’s a habit I’ve had for close to 30 years. It’s not worth fighting that level of muscle memory, especially when we have Find/Replace All! Haha
US citizens, too

Here (Denmark) the test is based on a book used to prepare for the test. I’ve always been able to pass when I tried, without having read the book.
Your wrong. I workout and practice language everyday.
How many mistakes are there in those 2 sentences?
At least 3!
You’re, work out?, practise, every day?
I have never seen someone use that spelling of practice in the USA.
I moght be wrong but is not practice a noun and practise a verb?
Not in the US.
Well then I am wrong.
Maybe the two spaces after the period?
IDK what platform you are using, but the 2 spaces at the end of a line, are to make new line work in standard Internet browsers.
Nothing to do with the browser, FYI, just the markdown interpreter - regardless of whether your client is a web app or otherwise.
As you say, two spaces before a carriage return indicates a line break in most flavors of markdown. Two carriage returns indicates a paragraph break.
I think they’re referring to two spaces (as in spacebar) after the periods.
So am I!
I see two spaces rendered on Jerboa, but only one space rendered on the Lemmy web app. I mean specifically after “wrong.”
Weird.
