He truly is an idiot’s concept of a genius.
No one who anctually understands Unix or IP networking would ever craft that as an explanation for this concept.
That said, it’s an excellent explanation of how a lobotomy helped him embrace his true self.
Now I want to see:
A genius wouldn’t post something this pointless and idiotic in the first place. If they felt inclined to, they would likely not think it worth the time.
i'd nominate Ramanujan as the geniuses' genius: he had basically no formal education on mathematics, and yet he solved problems that the rest of the world collectively couldn't crack.
Ah true I haven't heard of him! Love to hear about autodidact geniuses.
I think I just wanted to mention arrested development lol. It being a smart, well-written show about very dumb people
Fair! I hope I didn't ruin your fun.
No dramas!
