  I double check my writing because there are some “errors” that don’t matter (I stopped caring about “me” versus “I”) and then there are some errors that silently cause me to misinterpret the message

  Like as an analogy if I ask how much milk is left in the carton in the fridge

  • "haf" I know you mean half, no big deal
  • "three" I know you didn’t read my question, frustrating but not the worst thing
  • "full" but actually it was full three days ago when you last checked and this is stale information, and so I don’t buy another carton, then we’re out of milk because of a miscommunication

  You know?

  Because it’s worth it to be better than they are and it fights entropy
