I don't pronounce it. But in the privacy of my head I call it Keith.

Which is an odd name for a girl when you think about it.

I don't call it anything, and when someone pronounces loud in the room, I run as if I were followed by the devil

You pronounce it "Leslie"[^]?

With all due respect, I think my post was a little more interesting...
Leslie? Didn't he die?

Douglas Crockford, the inventor of JSON, pronounces it "Jason".

The second way. I've heard people say it Jason but that sounds too weird; using a real person's name for it.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

We spell it "S-O-A-P.S-L-A-Y-E-R"

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I pronounce it "jay-sawn". Mostly because Jason is my name and it drives me to know end to attempt to say it like my name when it is clearly spelled different. Can also get confusing in conversation as non-techies might think I'm talking about myself in the 3rd person or something.
And I pronounce GIF as "jif" with a soft 'G' and consider anyone that pronounces it with a hard 'G' a hipster that hasn't been around as long in the industry.

My desktop Kaspersky AV runs out in a couple of days, so I've bought a new license - but this time it's 3 devices / 1 year, so I can add the WookieTab (Win 10) and Herself's Samsung Galaxy Tab S (Android) since she's started using it for more than just Jigsaw puzzles. Taken her 2 years, but hey ho - she's not fond of new things.
So I've installed the trial version of IS2017 on the WookieTab ready for when my desktop licence runs out.
And it would like me to register. It would like that a lot. And I will, when I use the new licence.
But the stupid ![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) who wrote the software doesn't - deliberately - support touch in any way, shape or form. You have to use a mouse to select the "not now ![Sunshine | [little ray of sunshine]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/sunshine.gif) " button to get this TOP LEVEL form off the damn screen. No, the keyboard doesn't work either. Stupid, stupid, stupid. No other software I've seen on this ignores touch, even the first C# app I wrote way back when I was learning.

I got mine an iPad mini and then a Samsung so her indoors could connect when travelling. It was NEVER to be used as a reader. 4 years down the track she spends hours reading on the Samsung pad, everything EXCEPT books - still insists on dead tree books .

I love my dead tree's - specially when flying - no need to switch off during take-off/landing.
Oh, I buy them from the 2nd hand store so I'm not the killer.
signature upgrading ... please wait.

We actually have a library at home and every single book in there belongs to the wife, I divested myself of books at least 2 moves ago. I remember throwing out a couple of Heinlein books that were so well used they were falling apart, I loved my books but do not miss them now their era has gone.

I had literally worn the type of the pages of some. I think I have electronic copies of nearly all his books and still enjoy them. I still dig one out every now and then, nostalgia probably not a good thing.
