People haven't really been using that wording to refer to the current decade since the 90s, so it feels kind of dated.

I think that’s just because there aren’t any universally agreed on shortcuts to refer to the 2000-2009 and the 2010-2019 decades. Not enough people use nought for the “noughties” to have caught on, and “the teens” leaves out 2010-2012. At some point I expect it to comeback, possibly ironically at first, but once it’s back I think it will stick around again. People love short cutesy labels.

I feel like it might not get that popular. People haven't really been using that wording to refer to the current decade since the 90s, so it feels kind of dated.

Some other phrasing, nickname, slang, pun, or something could take off instead. I guess if there's some distinctive attribute to the decade maybe it'll get an adjective to contrast it with the roaring 20s.

Hey BRYCE? NSString properties are supposed to declared with copy access semantics instead of retain. Since NSMutableString is subclass of NSString, the property could be mutable under the hood!

Also I know I'm going past flexing here and I haven't talked to you in like ten years but FUCK YOU for writing a steam review that says pacific drive has "unnecessary ideological symbols." I'll put a trans pride sticker on my in-game station wagon and be happy the option is there. Consider yourself unfriended.
