It is possible to operate on information without rounding beliefs to either 100% certain or 100% certainly not, and without collapsing imprecisely specified heuristics to simple If X then 100%-certain-of-Y conditionals.
You didn't respond to the blog post. You responded to a version of it that has been rounded off in this manner. Likewise, you haven't made a response to my comment: I never claimed these criteria were effective ways to work out if an individual is a good computer programmer. You've rounded the idea that some people are more likely worth interviewing to a different meaning, and responded to that.
Likewise, using the word "prejudice" under one definition to pick up the negative connotations of one of its other definitions seems like the same kind of thing -- a similar obliteration of nuance.
