I was wondering what’s wrong with the HN site on mobile today. I thought something from my other safari settings carried over thinking is this another macOS / iOS problem. Good to know this time Apple is not to blame. Interesting psychology here how easy it was for me to go there.
I think the ingredient Silphium described in this dish (Now considered extinct) could be Sea Holly (Eryngium spp). Its highly debated as many authors think it is some extinct variety of fennel, but from the images on the coins it doesnt look like a Fennel.
Dang, you should change it to "Lopadotemachoselachogaleokranioleipsanodrimhypotrimmatosilphiokarabomelitokatakechymenokichlepikossyphophattoperisteralektryonoptekephalliokigklopeleiolagoiosiraiobaphetraganopterygon" via your admin superpowers!
I doubt that can happen because that would go over the length limit, probably it should be "The Longest Word In Literature"
as for it screwing with mobile site width, on desktop FF putting width small seems to work fine as the word seems to have soft hyphens in it? Because it splits at the window edge with a hyphen in place.
Legend has it that someone posted the recipe years ago, but the double-whammy of the long title and the HN need to remove "How to make …" broke the site.
Well observed, sir. I’m felicitous, since, during the
course of the penultimate solar sojourn, I terminated my uninterrupted
categorisation of the vocabulary of our post-Norman tongue.
I hope you will not object if I also offer my most enthusiastic contrafribularities.
Thus, I’m anaspeptic, frasmotic, even compunctuous to have caused you such pericombobulations.
May I offer you a pendigestatery
interludicule? Anything I can do to facilitate your velocitous
extramuralisation.

Well this certainly mucked with the width of the mobile HN site.
Have you checked out Harmonic? It's an amazing Hacker News android client!

Not on Chrome or Firefox for me. So I assume you are using Safari.
Can someone fix this? I don’t believe it is the first time
The long words must continue until word wrap increases.

This should have been an April Fools clue on Wheel of Fortune with Vanna White just about to die at the end of having to turn over all the letters.

Thank goodness Joyce doesn't have the record with his invented words in Finnegans Wake.
HN cut it off at "karab" and I thought this was the generic name of some new drug.
