Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

That's what I meant. I have seen actual M.D.s being downvoted even after providing proof of their profession. Just because they told people what they didn't want to hear.
I guess that's human nature.

I get you. Didn’t mean to come across as a “that guy”. So completely agree with you. The laminar flow Reddit shit infuriated me because I have my masters in Mech Eng and used to do a lot of CFD. People were talking out of their ass on “I know laminar flow!”

Well, see, it’s more than that. It’s not just a visual thing and…

“Ahhhh! I know laminar flow! Downvote the heretic!”

Sir… sir... SIR. I'll have you know that I, too, have seen laminar flow in the stream from a faucet. I’ll not have my qualifications dismissed so haughtily.
