That's not necessarily because they don't read his blog posts. There's every chance they read them and notice the misspelled acronym, but just assume it's a typo and don't mention it. It comes across as rude and petty to nitpick someone's critical writing by pointing out their typos.
- cupcake-unicorn 5y agoI guess that's why I found it because I'm autistic and I don't agree with that conclusion, especially if someone has a science blog that's citing studies. There's a way to point out typos that's not rude or petty. The fact that people assume that intent or get offended by the intent without asking about my intent is the problem and why it sucks to be autistic a lot of the time.
