#2If it is easy, it'd be nice to edit this the title to be not in all caps.

#4In fairness, the title of the original article is in ALL CAPS (due to text-transform: uppercase), so don't assume malice on the OP's part.

#5I find it funny that they bothered doing all caps for an article demonstrating a (sophisticated and well engineered) mostly boring architecture.

#7I've been sitting on the sidelines of the "Uber is great!" vs "Uber are a bunch of dicks!" war for quite some time now. I always figure every company of reasonable size contains elements of both. But geezus... this was posted with the title in all caps "THE UBER ENGINEERING TECH STACK, PART I: THE FOUNDATION". Presumably by someone at Uber. Is their corporate culture that arrogant?

Could you explain what is arrogant about it? The all caps doesn't come across as arrogant or weird to me on the blogpost.

#9Sometimes this happens because people use the HN bookmarklet to submit a post and the original article uses all-caps typography for its title (as this one does). But it's so rare for such cases to make the front page that I don't think we need to worry much about it. If it ever becomes a problem it shouldn't be hard to deal with.
All: it's fixed now, so please let's talk about the article rather than title mishaps.
