Attention to detail is important for many and is often a first touch with an end user. I agree with OP, if documentation is sloppy or inconsistent (I'm not saying the doc in question is because I haven't read it) it definitely reduces the impression that it's correct or reliable. I've skipped even trying software because of poor documentation and so the response of: > Give me a fucking break. ...seems shallow / callous. | ||

I highly disagree. You are judging a book by it's cover. Capitalization is no different from handwriting. Substance matters, capitalization and grammar are superficial. If meaning is captured then capitalization does not intrinsically matter. You are correct that people judge documentation off of grammar and punctuation. But this is not a rational or logical thing people do. But I can't blame you or others, I mean after all the world believes in religion, myths and other fantasmic spiritual things with no solid evidence as backing. It's normal. I just felt HN was above that. Guess I'm wrong. >...seems shallow / callous. Seems that way only because you're not thinking deep enough. Think carefully whether it is rational or logical to judge the works of say Einstein because he had a grammar error or bad handwriting. The two are completely orthogonal and that is the rational perspective. | ||

All this for writing Rust as rust! Wow! Tell me you have ADHD without telling me you have ADHD, just get on with the work and let others do their work. Don't flag their entire work. Linguistics is very inclusive. I took a course on it. No need to be a grammar nazi | ||
