Can HN add wordbreaking css on mobile? This breaks the width of the page on mobile.

Looks like a good place for some zero-width spaces. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-width_space

Those aren’t automatic, though.

表姐, in case you were wondering.

I'm assuming those Mandarin characters comprise the word for that relationship? I was wondering why this existed and I thought maybe they were adding the Hindi words for specific relatives (there's many, I assume the same is true for Mandarin).

Is this just one of those exceptional cases when having a strict variable naming convention doesn't work out?

Seems to be working fine.

If it works, don't break it

You missed a sibling or younger or elder in there somewhere.

It's a Spaceballs reference. :)

For those using Refined Hacker News[1] for Firefox on Android, you can add this to the Custom CSS field to prevent the overflow:

    tr.athing td.title:not([valign="top"]) {
        word-break: break-word;
    }

Does this page have some sort of camel-case aware word breaking? As I resize the page I notice it always remains broken at a word boundary and never breaks inside a word.

Ok, I see it now: there are wbr tags between the words on the page. TIL.

Java Swing took verbosity even further than that. I present to you a 92-character class name [1].

Thankfully, I think they fixed it in the newer version.
