Making a mistake is never disrespectful.

Doing it twice is, especially when you can see their name right there in front of you.

Call it a bug; one can overlook a simple typo quickly - let's not suggest that it has anything to do with respect.

Marc doesn't need any help defending himself. He's got cred.

I mostly agree with Marc that the baseline of the style guide should be short and to the point. Supplemental material explaining why can be helpful; but being able to fit the essentials onto at most a single sheet of paper so it can be stuck to the wall for easy reference by anyone new to the team is more useful.
If you want to keep it in PDF form, the best option is probably just to add a 1 page short guide that only has the what not the why. If you're willing to switch to HTML format putting the explanation in default collapsed blocks would be better.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Running Windows users with ‘standard’ rather than ‘administrator’ rights would have removed over 90 percent of the risk posed by critical vulnerabilities reported in Microsoft products last year, an analysis by privilege management firm Avecto has found. Taking computers away from users removes 100% of the risk

If only Microsoft had introduced a way for everyone to run as a standard user, with a prompt to elevate to administrator when required. I'm sure nobody would ever complain about it, or turn it off because it got in the way of them opening the "FluffyBunniesAndTaxRefund.exe" attachment that the tax man just emailed to them from a .cn address.

How surprising. A company that has a product that is used in companies like banks to run applications with elevated privileges is pushing for computers to be run in a state where you need a product that runs applications with elevated privileges. #Whodathunkit.

After being used to typing "su" on the prompt, one wonders why it took so damn long on Windows

This seems more like an ad disguised as a news article.

They are right - but hardly anyone will follow them. Look around among your friends: a single computer for a whole family with one account (which is an admin account of course) - "Dad, why is the computer getting so slow" asked little Jonny after installing a dozen free apps. Or someone considering a password of less than 20 characters to short - of course, he's using an admin account only. It does not matter how easy it is to create "normal" user accounts - people won't do so.

In late 2013 we made available a prerelease NuGet package which allows running a managed web application directly on top of IIS without going through the normal ASP.NET (System.Web) request processing pipeline. All the fun of ASP.NET, less of the unfun

The company is delving into “deep learning,” a branch of artificial intelligence that seeks to solve particularly hard problems using computer systems that mimic the structure and behavior of the human brain.
I hope the artificial brain has the voice of Kevin Spacey.

Maybe it'll come up with some good TV shows and meaningful episodes.

JavaScript is a swamp. It's the most important swamp in all of professional programming right now, and if you're a developer, you should have a professional mastery of it. But it's a terrible foundation for an enterprise codebase. "Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp."

All I can picture is Shrek as JavaScript and Lord Farquaad's Duloc as the castle. And now that song is stuck in my head again...
