A dictionary is an easy way to find out, but in the interest of good faith: stupid is a lack of intelligence, inept is a lack of skills. To the point: I'd argue ineptitude is both more damning and accurate than stupidity in this partic

I fully understand. My issue is not with the point, my issue is being too lazy to articulate the point, and instead just saying "stupid." Address the behavior, not the people.

It always cracks me up when people use the word "stupid" to insult other's intelligence. What a pathetically low-effort word to use.

A huge portion of journalism is in fact reporting what people say. An important part of a certain kind of journalism is investigating and reporting on those claims. Sometimes the facts are opaque but claims can be corroborated in other ways

What dont you like about powershell? I'm a die hard linux user, and some years ago took a windows gig on a whim. I find powershell fantastic and the only thing that makes my role bearable. Now, one of the first things i install on Linu

How fascinating: in a paragraph entirely _about_ language, written entirely in my first language, I can barely recognize a fair chunk of the terms.

Are you referring to MCP? If so, it's fully spelled out in the first sentence of the first paragraph, and links to a more thorough post on the subject. That meets 2 of the 3 criteria you've dictated.

I disagree. As I see it, it's pitched as a William Osman-inspired event. I wouldn't expect it to be a well oiled machine. In fact I'd expect it to be exactly how you framed it in the last paragraph. Personally, I can't h

I love the concept of expecting Big Willy to be an effective panel moderator. At times the guy can barely moderate his own mind (which is why I adore him). This wasn't billed as a career fair. Why are so many comments criticizing as if
