    Actually no. It demonstrates it directly. Can you not still parse the information? Honestly there's a point where an army of politeness enforcing assholes becomes its own form of i…

    Well... As the guy that did all of that let me tell you: it's futile. I knew back when Bill Binney came forward. It was all documented or otherwise obvious. From this I've learned …

    No. Your comment doesn't use any magical concepts for which I have no model. I think I entirely understood it. It's simplicity is incidental but allowed for that. People who come u…

    IMO those very few people would benefit tremendously from a less diluted workplace. Such that they may actually seek it out were it not for the forces that drive them away. The mod…
