Angela Collier turns her SciComms talent on the weird trait for loud-and-proud billionaires to "flex" on their so-called Physics bona fides. They are telling on themselves.
I had a coworker who fancied himself a philosophy whiz (he wasn’t) and I’m pretty sure he’d have had his entire head up Rand’s rectum if ever they were in the same room. Dude really knew how to kill a smoke break vibe🤣
I read The Fountainhead in my 20s, mostly out of curiosity. I was struck by what a hack writer Rand was and how disgusting and cruel her “objectivism” was.
When I was first a programmer in 1988 (and my older sister was also a programmer at that time), it was just a normal job. No brogrammers to be seen. And it was about 50/50 men and women where I worked. Maybe even a bit more women. And the money they were willing to pay me for doing what I loved and was good at, seemed like a lot for the time. Anyway, sometime after I left IT for the first time to take care of my special needs child, it all changed. I eventually went back to IT, but not at a programmer. I will watch that video. Thanks!
Please, a rusty chainsaw. I’m anything but a science nerd, (though I was really good at geology) but have actually improved my chops by watching science videos and reels.
I knew Elump was full of shit years ago, but Seth Abramson’s article on Musk’s lack of character really filled in the gaps for me. I’ll watch your linked video.
I started in 1996 and saw the brogrammer douche bags roll in well before I left in 2009. They weren't the real "nerds" they would have been hedge-fund managers if tech wasn't popping.
Brogrammers, ah yeah. Originally women did all the programming because you used a keypunch, and the "bros" of the 40's, 50's, and 60's felt that was too close to secretarial work. Ada Lovelace, and Margaret Hamilton (she pretty much wrote all the Apollo control software) were superstars (among many others), until the tech-bro's infiltrated the ecosystem and fucked it all up.
That may be one of the best YouTube videos I’ve watched this year🤘
I really love her attempt at the Isaacson staple, a humanizing tale from her (relative) youth in her reading of Atlas Shrugged.

Elon is not a physicist. I know an undergrad syllabus, and his courses don’t equip him for much.

Haven’t changed my mind yet!

You also need to wear a hockey goalie's mask too. And if there are bits of human flesh already embedded in the teeth, that is extra points.
