Mostly it amuses me people would rather judge than converse. What's the point of even reading this echo chamber? I'm done with this community.

We should really require commenting while downvoting unreplied comments. The community has gotten lazy.

I'll be the devils advocate. Why? I can understand calculus perfectly fine without understanding how people got there. In fact, I'd argue much of what you learn before call--in the…

If anyone has a clue why this was downvoted, please clue me in. It was on topic and indicating missing information. Edit: I really don't care how much I get downvoted, I'm going to…

Change your name to a random hash. Should work fine.

That is not tautological. Interest and relevance are different things.

Probably on their parent's account.

The comments on the New York Times seem to be high quality.

This is exactly the type of attitude that makes me dread the future. Why invest in technology at all? Wires are great, honestly. Easy to debug and use. The original zero config.

They aren't Uber and they exist.
