The Cambridge study is, I think, pushing our autocorrect ability pretty much to its limit. It does prove that typos are the least important errors in writing. If the reader has a high skill level in the language. Since for many of our readers English is not their first language they may have a low autocorrect threshold.
Fo rexample. See what I did? You automatically read that as "for example." If you were learning English at an early stage you would not find "rexample" in your faithful dictionary, your only true friend in the muddy waters that are the internet. In short, my sentence would have no meaning to you.
Ideally, we should be more tolerant of errors from foreigners than from ourselves. I show that in my curation. If a Filipino has a really good idea, well written apart from errors I can read through easily I may include their post. On the other hand, there are posters I do not even bother to read save once in a while to see if they have improved because I feel they should know better.
@sultnpapper, it is my understanding that writing has not been a regular part of your life until Daily Dose. (I am, of course, prepared to be proven wrong; I often am when I make assumptions about you.) Your thoughts are always worth reading and often worth promoting. You have in fact carved yourself a nice little niche. If your linguistics was perfect it would not improve your chances of inclusion. For now.
Trust me, I'm a doctor.
You are correct, I have never been one to write, like reading really well but the only writing I have done is on here with the daily dose and a couple short stories for some contests.
