- tumdum_ 10y agoTypos are easily checked by dictionary - no need to be native speaker for that :)
- Etheryte 10y agoChecking for typos using a dictionary makes little sense. Let's take the example that was pointed out in another comment: "It’s gonna work good on all devices." According to a dictionary (Oxford American, but use which ever you prefer), good can for example stand for "having the required qualities, of a high standard", which can easily sound fitting when you're not a native speaker.
- stirner 10y agoEnglish is a language with grammar that has a Stack Exchange site and can be Googled. The typos on the page are common for native English speakers who don't take the time or effort to check their writing for correctness. The author did not grow up from babyhood writing Go programs, but we expect them to be correct and adhere to known idioms.
- Etheryte 10y agoThe same can, for example, be said about Russian, but I doubt you would expect anyone with minimal experience in Russian to write without any errors despite that fact.
- stcredzero 10y agoBeing a learner is laudable. However, that means being open to constructive criticism.
