It's quite interesting to me that to an American conservative, "liberal" means "a Marxist Communist or secretly a Marxist Communist sympathiser, sworn enemy of Freedom", while to a European (or young American Jacobin reading) leftist, "liberal" means "a rich capitalist or secretly a rich capitalist sympathiser, sworn enemy of Progress".
And decades later, nobody bothers to clarify which pejorative they mean, but both agree that Liberals are The Worst.
Makes for very odd conversations.

The thing about people who have a lot of whatever it is that we're measuring with IQ is that they quite often tend to be way _more_ wrong than those who have less of whatever it is that those points stand for.
High IQ is kind of like superglue for opinions
Not only doesn't IQ compensate for ignorance or poor methodology, it acerbates the issue.
Rationalisation is a powerful drug. Most people can convince themselves of almost everything but those with high IQ tend to be _extraordinary_ at it.

Update: Das mit der Musik sind gar nicht die Handwerker.
Das ist ein Mädchen im Teenageralter, die am Spielplatz nebenan auf der Schaukel sitzt und einen wunderbaren Sopran zu den Songs aus ihrer Bluetooth-Box singt 😃

Dear open source users,
If the author of your favorite open source app has announced they stopped developing and supporting the app (because they're frustrated and possibly burned out), please don't suggest they do more free work so that you can continue using the app.
Instead, consider thanking them for their past work and let them know that you enjoyed their app.
Regards,
another open source developer

Lawyers think I’m a developer, and developers think I’m a lawyer. Both are wrong.
