Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

I practice this by reading off license plates while Iโm driving.
Itโs not a useful skill at all because the only time I use it is calling somewhere, and nobody else knows them.
You have to say it anyway, make them the weird one for not putting two and two together. This shit was created for a reason.
I have found it really useful for confusing AI phone support agents too. Reading a postcode as "Alpha bravo 1 2 3 charlie delta" and it had no idea what to do so put me through to a person.

I've found that anyone on the other end of a service call understands it clearly. About half use it correctly, which is how I learned back in the day.
