Also "I certainly havent' come up"

I assume he was using some Microsoft spellchecker.

It’s a Silicon Valley pro-tip: spelling and grammatical mistakes are signs that you’re super busy or too rich to care.

There’s a few famous VCs that are apparently too busy to ever capitalize a letter... Too busy to shift!

Example from the same site: https://www.techemails.com/p/sergey-brin-irate-call-from-ste...

Personally, I'd struggle to not capitalize things. It's just automatic.

I do believe there was a bit of a fashion to not capitalize things for a while too; I remember some people doing it on the interwebz.

Missed opportunity: Those VCs are “too busy to capitalize”!

Or maybe they write on an iphone. I had to turn auto capitalization off because it would capitalize emoticons after a full stop: turning xD into Xd

How does it prevent one to put caps manually? I too have disabled mose auto-things on my smartphone yet I use caps. It is not a technical proble, it is about decency and respect.
