/me raises hand
Of course, we all code in Objectivist C ( http://fdiv.net/2012/04/01/objectivist-c http://fdiv.net/2012/04/01/objectivist-c ) ;)
But seriously ... I'm actually surprised that there aren't more Objectivists on HN. There's a strong anti-authoritarian streak here, with an emphasis on rationality, independence and capitalism. Take a look at the list of objectivist virtues ( http://wiki.objectivismonline.net/Virtues http://wiki.objectivismonline.net/Virtues ):
Rationality, Honesty, Integrity, Productivity, Independence, Pride, and Justice
That list describes a lot of people on HN.
- Zigurd 12y agoHuh, I've got enough points, maybe I should do a poll of Objectivist, Libertarian, Anarcho-capitalist, anarchist, Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Communist, Green, etc. self-identification. Anyone I'm leaving out?
- duncan_bayne 12y agoI like it :) That said I'm not convinced that all of the options there are actually in the same category; some are philosophies, others are political choices based on philosophy. E.g. I know of Objectivists who vote Republican, and Anarchists who vote Green. Perhaps two polls: one for philosophy, one for voting choice? Edited: I guess you could have one poll, & people could vote in two categories? I've never set up a poll myself so I'm not sure.
