Thank you so much for posting the video! (For those who might want to watch it also, the interesting stuff starts at the 5 and a half-minute mark). The re-framing of cancer as a desirable injury response is truly eye-opening.

From IRS perspective, your filings are taken on faith, while during an audit, you are expected to have records to back up those filings. Perhaps this article will explain my previous link more clearly: http://www.walletpop.com/blog/2010/04

I hear your point against over-using the word "Misogynism". However, I just looked it up in the dictionary and it says "hatred, dislike, or mistrust" of women. So I would say that yes, by definition dislike of women is misogynistic. What I

You do know that when you quote a post, you have to quote something the poster actually said, right? Where did I say "she is a one issue writer, therefore a mysoginist"?

Huh? Now it's my turn to say, I don't even understand your point. Her citation from 1932 is "IQ Percentage By Gender" and your citation from 2008 (that I think you mean to say supports the 1932 numbers) is "Gender Similarities For Math Pe

Ok, let's say someone had written an opinion piece on how Windows is unfairly portrayed compared to Linux. You read it, and it just seems, I don't know, off. Perhaps it's the fact that they illustrated their point with a feature comparison

I hate ad hominem arguments but in this case I feel I must. The author, although a woman herself, has a clearly defined agenda that smacks of misogynism. Here is a telling quote from her interview with the Esquire Magazine: There are a lot

I tested one of those programs once. I don't remember a 100% but the list of "women" writers that came up for me was something like, Linus Torvalds, Richard Dawkins, Steve Yegge, etc. I think I tested about a dozen male bloggers in total, a

Yes, I saw that too, I am a big fan of reading before commenting :) However, I don't think substituting one human error (that of the programmers) by another human error (that of the psychologists) proves anything. You could say that the sec

However, so far no efforts have been made to actually correlate the program's judgment with the mental state of the writers. So, it's never been tested? Say what?

Thanks wooster. You are the only person who actually answered my question. I guess this forum has a chance :) I wonder if with the "graying" of baby boomers, the statistic is going to shoot up. I wouldn't be surprised if by 2020 the numbers

I am curious, are you being sarcastic? You just asked me why I would get upset when someone "deigns" (dict: to behave as if one is descending from a superior position or rank) to "correct" me (dict: to rebuke or punish in order to improve).

I've taken a couple 2-year breaks from programming - once to start a company, and another time for personal reasons. Like you, I didn't not know how the time gap itself and the reasons for it would affect my conversations with potential emp

You mean sort of like suffering from paranoid delusions, but on purpose? Are you saying that since the article isn't mean in and of itself, we should see what kind of imaginary voice we can assign to it so that it does begin to sound mean

I am well aware of the various ways to look at statistics. Average vs median wages, equal pay vs comparable pay, etc. However, before you get angry, please consider that the argument works the other way too. For example, the statistic that

Making cents on a dollar, whether from non-whiteness or non-maleness, is hardly an inferiority complex. But hey - don't just take my word for it, see for yourself. Go to a McDonalds and request an item from their 99c menu. When they ring it
