> There's an English error on the very first sentence of the description on the Microsoft site. [emphasis added]

The correct usage would be to talk about an error "in" a sentence, not "on" a sentence.

Muphry's law get you every time!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muphry%27s_law

> Muphry

Sems like it got you too!

(Yes that was intentional

In this case the misspelling is actually the correct one. HN has shortened the link in GPs post but if you follow it you'll see it spelled "Muphry's law", and it is a separate one from the general one that everyone knows about.

That said it wouldn't surprise me at all if I've misspelled something here : )

Surely you didn't mean too but the correct tense of "get" on you're sentence would be "gets"

That was to make sure I didnt violate Muphry's law!

> on you're sentence would be "gets"

this just gets better and better

More accurately, Skitt's Law (which is mentioned in that Wikipedia article).

The error is a missing word if anyone is wondering.

"The Bosque programming language is designed for writing code that _is_ simple, obvious, and easy to reason about for both humans and machines."

So what?
