Coming from the middle class, I've never met anybody talented coming from a shitty school who didn't also get filtered into a gifted program at a good school. Maybe your school system just wasn't competent at filtering…

You can make a joke because that, while conflict minerals are horrible and cause enormous damage to human life, the conflicts between people on a team are also very small. Comparing the two as if they are equivalent,…
A character assassination would be something like "He does something morally reprehensible (cheating, selling ads to three year olds, etc". The above post is more like "He harps on multiple things he maybe shouldn't,…
So many times, dark mode just seems like somebody pressed the "invert color" option
One of those stories is having a bad password memory. One is a person conducting business on his personal account and triggering flags. Another is a business messing up. It's a good habit to keep multiple interlocking…
