Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
If you are understood buy you're audience, you have spoken correctly. Correcting someone's grammer is pointless
I dunno what correcting someone's grammar has to do with paying off your readers. Sounds expensive.
This isn’t speaking, but writing (or typing). Using ‘correct’ spelling & grammar helps ESL speakers read the language as well as those relying on text translation software. Some folks make typos & it’s fine to make mistakes but it’s also strange to act like it’s just as easy to understand. Apostrophes have a specific meaning & many folks rely on them for understanding.
I’m learning a foreign language now & I can tell you it is a massive stumbling block when you run into what you think is a new word, but is ‘just’ a misspelling.
My issue with this account is not its corrections, but if you want to be the correction bot, at least get the typography right too.
