Hazard comments on Words Aren’t Type Safe

Forgot that code blocks existed. I typed “1 + hello” because when I went to put quotes around ‘hello’ I saw I was already using them to designate a chunk of code, and went “eh, maybe people will guess hello is a string”. You know, because if I know it’s a string, everyone must know it’s a string, right?

  Heh, indeed.
  
  For future reference (for other people reading this, even if you know), you do inline code styling with backticks, like so:
```
This single ` word`  will be styled like inline code.
```
  becomes:
  
  This single word will be styled like inline code.
  
  And for code blocks:
```
```
  This whole sentence will be styled like a code block.
```
```
  becomes:
```
This whole sentence will be styled like a code block.
```
  (EDIT: Corrected formatting.)
