Lmao at learning computer science, psychology and economics from Hacker News...
I think it was obvious he meant "learning some from these subjects", and not "I actually became as knowlegeable as a psychologist and an economist".

#113Earlier quoted context omitted.
At the moment now it's default orange again. Xmas theme turned off?
That was me. I turned it on in the REPL last night, but did it wrong. Leapt out of bed this morning thinking "Doh! I bet it switched off." Which it had.
No worries. That's why we have 2 Christmas days.

#114The thing I dislike most about the holidays is the erosion of intellectual discussion and infectious somatization even on its few remaining bastions like HN. Oh, Huxley.

Santa got you a thesaurus for Christmas?

The only weird one there is Soma, and that's a Huxley reference you won't find in a thesaurus.
I wish though. A thesaurus would be a most endearing gift.

That's among the most downvotes I've ever seen, but I suppose I deserve as much for being a grump.
I do find it fascinating how the spirit of Christmas (effectively read: holiday consumerism) is unshakable in the Western world, possibly more so than any religion.
There might be a business lesson in here.

#118HN is very informative and boosts the confidence of readers in their respective areas of working. I wish all HN contributors to include articles which will be of interest to professionals in all walks of life.
