Someone should tell that guy to buy a new keyboard with a working "shift" key. Seriously, I can't understand why someone chooses to willfully ignore the most basic grammar rules just "to be different". This just makes everything harder and annoying to read.

  That's similar to when people send me audio messages on WhatsApp instead of texting me. My position is that if you have no time to type a proper message, I won't have the time to listen to your blabbering.

    With the transcript feature, that's not an excuse.

      I don't need excuses to ignore something I consider rude.

Agreed. No capitalization is fine for Slack, but annoying in a blog. Here is a fixed version: https://gist.github.com/dmahlow/55028bd34c148514067abd80291aac28 https://gist.github.com/dmahlow/55028bd34c148514067abd80291a...

Author of the post here. Thanks for the feedback, this was my first publish and was trying out this writing style. Noted that it doesn't go along well and changed.

  Hi. I apologize if my comment sounded too snarky or even rude. But really, despite the current trend to snub it, syntax for writing texts has a reason to be, same as in programming or coding (I'm speaking in general, right now). Rules are what make a text actually readable. As an example, I often deal with teenagers and 1st graders in my job and have a really hard time deciphering what they write :-/. Incidentally,I also believe that taking the time to write and properly format a text (be it a blog entry or an SMS) is a form of respect towards those who read it. But this last part is just an old man's rant ;-).
