The texting generation is comfortable with literary stupidity. It's only getting worst.
The renowned linguist, Dr. Henry Higgins, addressed this topic quite some years ago, when the problem was even worse:
YouTube: Why Can't The English?

Quoting:It's only getting worst.

whoa, surely i didn't post such, did i?
i hope that was in a comment, and not my original posting of the video. i'm typically a militant grammarian, and would hope to be corrected on such!
sorry for the late reply; i just found this in an unrelated search :).

No, Nick, it was a quote from the second line of the article on Phoronix. Ordinarily, I'd just let it slide. I must have had a bee in my bonnet that day.
To be fair, this most likely is really a problem with inadequate proofreading rather than anyone not knowing that the proper word is "wild." It's the old typo followed by a 'too quick spell check run' error. That is, he makes a typo like typing "e" rather than "d" and ends up with "wile" instead of "wild." Then he runs a spell check to catch errors in the article, the first suggestion is "while" (of course) and he makes another error in accepting that without looking too closely.

Well, if it wasn't it would be wild, wouldn't it? Better than that something else, I guess. If the code is to lose, the developers might loose it.
