Why the hell is there a line break after every sentence?

discuss

order

Yeah, that's really a strange choice for formatting and makes it very hard to read. Not the typical practice to insert a <br> after every sentence... (that said, the post itself is a great read!)

The goal of truncating the sentences in that way was precisely to increase the suspense a bit, but I believe I miserably failed, making it just less readable.

I think it’s called ventilated prose. More commonly found in code comments.

Probably originally written for LinkedIn. The whole pointless "moral lesson" when they didn't actually achieve anything vibe fits too.

No, it wasn't written for LinkedIn. It was written for my blog, and I just wanted to share something that happened, as I often do. That's all :-)
