    "X is not true socialism/communism" has become the new godwin's law. Whenever the failure of a socialist/communist government is discussed inevitably is wasn't TRUE socialism/commu…

    98% of plumbers are men, for some reason feminists aren't outraged about men getting to make sure shit flows. The reality is that programmers are an easy target and easy to push ar…

    I think MOOCs are the future based on my own experience. They allow the best teachers to scale their reach. Instead of aristotle giving a lecture to a room it allows an unlimited a…

    People need to realize we are built on hardware that is hundreds of millions of years old. We share a similar hormonal dominance hierarchy system with fucking lobsters. You can't j…
