    The only “territory” that deliberately manipulating a title comes with is that of misinformation. For what other reason would another application be wedged in? Why are other grants left out? It’s all very plain.

      I think real intelligence by definition requires empathy and humility, which is typically the opposite of such dogmatism in my opinion.

        Strong feelings about issues do not emerge from deep understanding

        My feelings about capitalism are largely fueled by how well I understand it. When I understood it less, I didn’t mind it as much

        I don’t like this quote

          Yeah, if strong emotions were such a liability then we probably wouldn’t have them anymore. Emotions aren’t vestigial or useless or contrary to rational discourse, they’re an integral part of what it means to be sentient and sapient, and they can be incredibly useful when doing things that are decidedly “rational.” I can tell that some code I wrote is shit because it “feels wrong” a hell of a lot faster than I can by logically reasoning it out.

          I’m hoping that quote is simply lacking context. The alternative is that the people behind the quote are just fucking insufferable.

        intelligence has nothing to do with empathy or humility, it is a measure of knowledge and problem-solving. lying about the contents of posts and pretending you are justified is not intelligent, even if you add a quote.
