Yes, but that doesn't mean it's best. As an example, "unuseful" shows up on Google about 363,000 times, but "useless" shows up on Google about 120,000,000 times. So replacing "unuseful" by "useless" is definitely an improvement; the sentence reads much more naturally that way.

The FOSS server fossies.org offers a new feature "Source code misspelling reports":

 https://fossies.org/features.html#codespell

Although such reports are normally only generated on request, as Fossies administrator I have just created (for testing purposes) an analysis for the current Ruby release 2.6.5:

 https://fossies.org/linux/misc/ruby/codespell.html

That version-independent URL should redirect always to the last report (if available), so currently to

 https://fossies.org/linux/misc/ruby-2.6.5.tar.gz/codespell.html

Although after a first review some obviously wrong matches ("false positives") are already filtered out (ignored) please inform me if you find more of them so that I can force a new improved check if applicable.

Just for information there are also two supplemental pages

 https://fossies.org/linux/misc/ruby/codespell_conf.html

showing some used "codespell" configurations and

 https://fossies.org/linux/misc/ruby/codespell_fps.html

showing all resulting obvious "false positives".

Since a lot of spelling errors seem recently been fixed a similar check was done also for the new release candidate 2.7.0-rc1

 https://fossies.org/linux/misc/ruby-2.7.0-rc1.tar.gz/codespell.html
