@Maristya No its not. A Lettice is any species of lettuce where the cells are arranged in a lattice. Not to be confused a Lattuce, which is anytime you have many heads of lettuce arranged in a lattice!
I was really depressed for the last two days because I left my ring on the lawn and the crows stole it BC shiny. It's irreplaceable and Akkas gave it to me two years ago so I was devastated. I dredged the pond and used a metal detector all over the lawn but it was gone. But today I cooked the crows bacon in the morning and this afternoon it was returned RIGHT WHERE I LEFT THE BACON!!!!!

I imagine how he started the conversation...
"Mom, if you keep working as a nurse I will never be able to afford a proper gaming rig.
You know... My friends think you're quite sexy. Wouldn't it be better to get some good money by shaking your tits for them?"
Apparently using they as a singular pronoun (to use instead of he and she) is hardly a new phenomenon. It dates back to 1375 in written records!
In fact, singular you is much more recent! Dating back to the 17th century! ๐
Oh, this quote’s fun, and it shows that our gender-related issues has been going on for centuries:
In 1794, a contributor to the New Bedford Medley mansplains to three women that the singular they they used in an earlier essay in the newspaper was grammatically incorrect and does no โhonor to themselves, or the female sex in general.โ To which they honourably reply that they used singular they on purpose because โwe wished to conceal the gender,โ and they challenge their critic to invent a new pronoun if their politically-charged use of singular they upsets him so much.

I’d say it’s probably safe to use they in general. I do use singular they regularly and it’s the least fuss imo.

I was worried about leaving an open standard, saying my org was changing wso2 for tyk -- I was mistaking wso2, a monolith mostly-opensource service, for oauth2, the standard. Tyk is actually more open-source than wso2, built on Go, and designed for performance and open-source extensibility. I am excited to switch to Tyk.
