I would be interested in discussing, offline (email in my profile) your actual knowledge of this issue.
The men and women that post and comment here are, in my opinion, among the best and the brightest. To dismiss the opinions of some significant proportion of them as "political groupthink" seems strange. Anyway, email me if you wish, so as not to pollute your 97 day experience with HN by continuing this subject here.
- camccann 17y agoAnyway, email me if you wish, so as not to pollute your 97 day experience with HN by continuing this subject here. Your condescension is duly noted. Regretfully, I think I must decline your offer of a "discussion".
- DanielBMarkham 17y ago...I guess being more interested in science than ideology puts me in the minority around here... When engaged and offered to take the conversation offline, replied with: ...Your condescension is duly noted... The best way to try to cover up your tracks when you're doing X? Point it out in other people. That always works! If you're going to make generalizations about the entire board, people are kinda stuck having to downmod you because it's obvious you've already made your mind up and don't have a lot to offer to the conversation. It's an ad hominem on anybody who might want to talk to you. Not such a good move.
- camccann 17y agoOkay, you're right. No matter how annoyed I am with the discussion the least I can do is not make things worse. My apologies.
