Comment How the fuck is that /. material? (Score 1) 119

Comment Look at yourself America (Score -1, Troll) 271

The country with the most prisoner per capita in the world is not well placed to criticize others about emprisonment. Especially if you consider how American muslims are predominantly black and they are the ones sent to American prisons.

Why the fuck is /. participating in that obvious anti-Chinese propaganda?

You set up a couple of tables in a database, you write some HTML, and you think you've got it figured out. But it's precisely because you know so little that you don't realize how much you don't know. This is the bottom end of the impostor syndrome, and it shows in every domain and statistic about skill or intelligence.

The elitists are the ones sneering at programmers because they too can write some HTML. It's the ones sneering at farmers because they too can grow some basil on their balcony. It's the ones sneering at the construction industry because they too can assemble their Ikea furniture.
