Re: Will we get a Dev Log from Josh?

This is the kind of "Are we going to get a Dev Log?" post that I like.

"Are we getting one?"
"He still has time."
"I am looking forward to it."
"He posted one!"

"Bi-weekly" can actually mean either. :)
I don't get it.. Bi-weekly means twice a week in my book.. :?

Just googled it, and you appear to be correct, Tal, but I'm old-skool, and oh, I'm just going to take more meds..
Yeah, bi- is a confusing prefix because it means two pretty much opposite things.
Generally I hear bi-weekly as once every two weeks. It kind of implies a schedule (On the Monday of every second week, for example). "Twice weekly" would probably be more correct in describing something that happens two times each week.

Bi-weekly means every two weeks.
Semi-weekly means every half-week (i.e. twice a week).

You're correct, I'll start using that one.
However the definition of Bi-weekly includes twice a week so it's still easily confused.

English mate.
You're an Aussi, you know "Yeah, na" and "Na, yeah". So you can obviously understand that English can be ... contradictory.
It's a great language for lying in. :3
