Self-plagiarism is the stupidest fucking thing of many, many idiotic concepts academics have come up with.
Jut an incoherent and ridiculous idea.
Annoying
Marked Up
What kind of world is it when a freakin’ chicken salad sandwich is $20?
It’s California so it’s gonna be expensive, but damn. I can make that at home for what, $2 total? That’s a 10x markup.
Two Don’t
I don’t like helping people and I don’t like asking for help.
I think I worked helpdesk too long for that. It changes you.
Never Be Wannbe
The “conversation” around Alysa Liu after the Winter Olympics was so odd and a great example of what occurs when you allow women’s neuroticism and instrasexual competition to go off the rails with no checks.
Average Man: Wow, she’s awesome and seems like a great person. She’s cute, funny, happy and seems like she might be fun to be around.
Screeching “Feminist:” WHY ARE YOU SEXUALIZING HER? Why are you obsessed with sex? It’s all you ever think about!
Average Man: Who said anything about sex? I just think she seems like a neat person, one you could really talk to.
Screeching “Feminist:” It’s sex all the time with you men! All you ever talk about!
Average Man: Someone is obsessed with sex here, but it’s definitely not me.
Of course, deep down, a lot of those American “feminists” know they are terrible people and that no one wants to be around them; their romantic prospects are dim because they are mentally ill, won’t get help with managing it, and take their self-inflicted maladies out on the world. And the remarkable thing is that (other than being delightfully amazing at figure skating) Alysa just seems like the average American girl from 30-40 years ago before 80% of women went absolutely fucking nuts.
They loathe her because she’s everything they will never be.
Ideo Slog
Being ideologically against AC is one of the stupidest things I know of.
The other is moron leftists and their opposition to nuclear power. That’s making a comeback now, this time in combination with really loony conspiracizing.
GMUEJGHJSAฤฆWWลด
Mask obsession at this point and whatever the hell that is are just signs of untreated mental illness.
Spews
No, they have no idea how fucking clownishly stupid they sound because most of the people spouting nonsense are from the “philosophy is useless” crowd.
Predictably — because philosophy is ineluctably tied into anything we humans do — they start attempting to use philosophy when they need to rely on it, but have no tools to do so. Utter garbage then spews out.
Kub Scouts
Kubernetes as a project is a reification of developer indecisiveness and incompetence
Sysadmin types generally don’t write much software, but the equivalent in our space would be some poorly-maintained unreadable 2,000 line batch file written in 2002 and still being used today.
Kubernetes is what you get when devs get their wish list and then can avoid responsibility or accountability.
2008 Driver
Oh, shit, I’d forgotten about that HP driver until this post. What a nightmare. Some things have gotten better over the years.
Control Rod
Great goddamn, that’s dipshitty in about seven different ways.
Degrowthers are wild. They come up with these weirdo conspiracy theories even after their side spent 50 years NIMBYing everything in sight. That is one of the stupidest, most transparently clueless statements I’ve ever read. And I’ve read every Andrea Dworkin book.
AI Lie
Yet economists (emphasis on the “con”) have insisted that AI is having no impact on the job market.
Which is bullshit. Some of it is of course offshoring and outsourcing. But even that is amplified by AI. Now, a marginal employee in India can be more productive with AI at still 1/5 the cost.
Economists are just morons.
Address Neu
Agreed. It didn’t make things better for women, even. It was a net loss for everyone. Indulging neuroticism doesn’t actually help. Addressing the real problems do, but we did not even attempt that.
Most Devs
I think most devs exist to make my life worse and more painful. Most of their decisions are just incredibly bad and fake secure — their usual excuse for implementing something ineptly or just not doing it at all.
Weren’t No Monkey
How would you react if your partner of 20 years told you they (no longer) believe in evolution?
Bye now, have fun being a dumbass somewhere that’s not here.
Think Nonsense
Regarding that tard-ass person in the post below, I did some research. There are not many countries with no public libraries in the world. This is the list:
- Somalia
- South Sudan
- Yemen
- Central African Republic
- Chad
- Niger
- Afghanistan
- Sudan
- Nauru
- Tuvalu
- Kiribati
- Marshall Islands
- Vatican City
So that means about 97.3% of the world does in fact have access to some form of public library. I could not easily discover how many of those countries’ libraries lend DVDs, but most do.ย Of course, many people cannot get to or otherwise have problems accessing their library, but that was also true of me as a kid. The nearest one was quite a long drive away.
Do people even think a little before they write absolute nonsense? Apparently not.
