    Hint: Codeproject prefers archaic word forms, such as "are" and "you" and space-after-comma.

            Because a space is required after the comma in English. It's a "learn it and do it" rule.

                  Not a genius. Comma after space is a solecism. And one utilises the majuscule form of the perpendicular pronoun when one is refering to oneself.

                    If it ends the plague of people who are too dumb or lazy to use full words instead of text speak, I say bring it on.

                      And what should we do about it? Build a big rocket and leave? That might work, but is it even known whether just the world will end or also the rest of the solar system? And even if you manage to escape, what then?

                        It's a rule in English and other languages (we Germans even have an insustry standard for that!), and frankly texts wihtout the space look shite.
