Your comments history suggests you’re rather bitter about “nerds” who are likely a few standard deviations smarter than you (Anthropic OG team, Jeff Dean, proof nerds, Linus, …)


And they’re all dumber than John von Neumann, who cares?


Transitively, you haven't thought the most thoughts or cared the most about anything, therefore we should disregard what you think and care about?

Your comment history is littered with “nerds”, “elite”, “better” and all sorts of comparisons.
