Karp lost nothing, and gained a great deal. I suspect that he can only shake his head at the notion that anybody with a three-digit IQ would step inside a high school under any circumstances.
- tensor 13y agoAnti-intellectualism at its finest. You advocate that people not learn. What Karp lost is knowledge. He can try to gain it back as an adult, but most likely he'll be too preoccupied with his lottery winnings and socializing in the business world to care. Meanwhile, others will make serious progress for our society. Unless you have the luxury of equivalent or better education than high schools provide, you are choosing a life of ignorance.
- robryan 13y agoAre you saying that he isn't at it above the level of the average high school graduate? I would argue that he has made more serious progress and impact that most of us ever will. Of course no doubt some will say that Tumblr is worthless to society, pretty much the same thing that crops up every time there is a thread about Mark Zuckerburgs achievements.
- Kudzu_Bob 13y agoYou seem to labor under the misapprehension that learning things and going to high school have something in common.
