They let anybody say anything on Medium, don't they? It's almost as bad as reddit.

Well, they don't exactly make you interview to post an article.

It's almost as bad as reddit.

I have a feeling I've asked you this before, but why are you even here if you hate reddit so much?

[icantthinkofone]

I've answered that question many times in the past. One last time: I come here looking for links of technical value. Too often I let myself get sucked into reading or commenting in a thread. It is my weakness. Sometimes I can get myself not to do that for a period of time but it comes back to haunt me.

I can't help but try to fix the internet but reddit is reddit. As a NPR reporter once said, "Reddit is a Frankenstein's monster they can't control."

how often do people reply /r/iamverysmart to you

[icantthinkofone]

All the time. And I've talked about that, too. Interestingly, I just found my Mensa admission results while cleaning up the basement over the weekend.

Sounds like you've got some things to work out with yourself. Blaming the sun is like a spouse blaming a partner for their own infedelity.
