Right, but if this piece was clearly optimising for something other than efficiency of transmitted information, and that's why it was good.
- inglor_cz 1y agoI feel that this piece was trying to convey some quite profound emotions, and quite successfully so, but the insistence on non-capitalization was just getting in the way of this main effort.
- stavros 1y agoI don't know, personally I enjoyed the general aesthetic the choice created.
- inglor_cz 1y agoYour head might be more efficient than mine in processing text. For me, it felt like a somewhat complicated chore.
- TRiG_Ireland 1y agoI'm now feeling slightly odd that I read all three posts without even noticing the capitalisation.
- inglor_cz 1y agoI envy you. For me, it felt like dragging something a bit heavy across an uneven floor. Doable, but unpleasant.
- gritten 1y agoNo you didn't.
- stavros 1y agoAw man, really? I thought I did, that sucks.
- machomaster 1y agoWe don't know what the author tried to optimize. Maybe it was for the number of times the Shift key was pressed. Maybe it was for the author's convenience. What we know is that the author did NOT optimize for: - efficiency of transmitted information - readers' convenience - ease of reading And this is the exact reason why it was so bad.
