"hi I'm a liar and we only did something because the bad press started to go mainstream. fuck trans people"

you have a point, you don't appear to have read that you're a fucking idiot enough

Good news, you now have to read every tweet made on Twitter or you're against free speech!

"sure you might get pretty sick, but if you power through the diarrhea and cramps you can enjoy the benefits of getting some serious food poisoning"

I can't believe you're giving away this advice for free

believing in things that aren't true makes a lot of arguments fall flat

I always feel like I'm missing something about literate programming because every example is "godawful". Transitioning between text and context-less code fragments littered with markup is incredibly jarring, and instead of something "written for humans", you now have something that is neither text _or_ code that you have to piece together and hold in your head as you go.

Like most? all? of the names dropped in the article, he appears to be interminably up his own ass. Not sure why he was notable enough for a long form interview

Exactly! Imagine not wanting to be your own bank or lose your life savings to a buggy contract... pathetic

> I read this often and maintain the attitude that scripture, science, art are all branches of the same Tree.

Have you considered that having a tree where one of the branches lets you believe things based on little, bad, or no evidence, and those beliefs are then unable to be challenged, which leads to you being able to make laws based on those beliefs, is not a great idea? I sure wouldn't eat an apple from that tree!

That situation should be added to the Wonderlic!

"When evaluating candidates who will be working with large amounts of money, should you give them the Not-IQ-but-we-all-know-that's-what-it-is test:

a) before you weed out the minorities, who by definition cannot be trusted around nor deserve large amounts of money

b) after you weed out the minorities, who by definition cannot be trusted around nor deserve large amounts of money

c) I find this question offensive and would like to out myself as either a minority, who by definition cannot be trusted around nor deserve large amounts of money, or a minority sympathizer

d) An IQ test is not needed because there are other, more legal, ways to weed out minorities, who by definition cannot be trusted around nor deserve large amounts of money"

d) is the trap choice, as the IQ test is entirely for the benefit of the candidate so they feel like they're part of the "exclusive club" of smart non-minorities who by definition can be trusted around and deserve large amounts of money. b) is then the obvious answer as there is no risk of a non-minority complaining because only an asshole would apply to work at a big hedge fund.

You seem fairly upset over this. Have you considered organizing like-minded individuals and forming a campaign to raise awareness on the issue until they apologize to you for apologizing for being inept bigots?

with poor ethics
