Why does it say “constants here” in .data? .data is for initialized variables. Constants go into .rodata

Teaching wrong things does not make the article better accessible, but more confusing.
You are correct.
The focus of the series is in on accessibility. Sometimes it comes at the expense of telling the whole story: I was even on the fence on introducing the .bss block, honestly.
The article mentions initialized variables, but maybe this warrants a footnote.
Thanks for the feedback and for reading through the article. I appreciate a lot :)
