Content looks great, but I was continually distracted by the
consistent use of lowercase i as a pronoun. Please fix this.
It would be a real shame for such a long and otherwise
excellent article to be rendered amateurish by such a trivial
error.
Just in case English isn't your first language: the pronoun
"I" is always uppercase, including when used with
contractions, e.g. I'm, I've, I'll etc.
Thanks for the kind words about the article.
He he, this is a bit of concious rebellion on my part. English
is my first language but i don't agree that 'i' should be
capitalized mid-sentence. I am too humble to consider a
mid-sentence 'i' important enough.
Interesting article regarding 'i':

It doesn't matter why. That's how it's done in English. You don't
get to change the capitalization of keywords in D. Same thing
here.
