Short URL or very long URL for SEO?

I have two questions, I am using SEO by Yoast on my Wordpress site and it shorten my url by removing stop words thus the urls are pretty short in many cases. Should I keep short url or allowing full/long url? according to you, which one should I use on post title ?

One of the most basic search engine optimization techniques is in using SEO-friendly URL structures. A good structure can help the indexation process of your website, but, unfortunately, there are plenty of websites that use incorrect, suboptimal URLs.

the length of a URL could affect the appearance of search snippets, but does not affect search rankings.
