>First issue - outside of "my IQ is..." bragging rights, intelligence is multi-dimensional.

This is the reason I shy away from using the term IQ. I do not believe it's a valid test on the individual level.

>If it's "homeopathy would be better than vaccines for our baby"-class stuff

A lot of it is this level. In fact, homeopathy is a major point of contention.

While knowledge is part of it, understanding is also a large factor. Having to explain things again and again and them not understanding what you're saying.

I would say some regular culprits are viral internet memes that say something crazy. My SO and I are ideologically aligned, for the most part, so are both right-wing. I don't know if you spend time in right-wing internet silos but there are a lot of [redacted] memes that go around claiming something wild that are almost always false. Maybe it's the same on the left, I have no idea.

Used to, I would explain what's going on, which I'm fine with. At a certain point, she became tired of the explaining and decided that I "never agree with her." So, now I have to ignore them, because I'd rather not fight about it.

>OCPD

I do have this.

You're right though, the answer is patience.

It would be amazing if it gets carried over to the Mac.

I don't think anything will stay stagnant enough for us to even comprehend what life will be like in the future.

Contrary to others here, I am not a fan of Porkbun. Yes, it has everything you need and yes, it is cheap. But the website is sub-usable way more often than it should be. I started using Porkbun because it was so cheap and I've found myself going back to IWantMyName.com. It's more expensive but I think I get a better experience and service.

I use iCloud because of Apple's Advanced Data Protection. I don't believe Dropbox offers anything like that, do they?

For backups I use Time Machine synced to a Linux home server.

>I once worked on an in-house ERP system which had been developed over about 15 years by various developers.

I read this and immediately became sick to my stomach. I despise working in corporate america.

>Very slow for medium-sized JSON (16MB)

If aqny came here for fun, I think he just found it. Working on performance issues is the best.

I get that focus is important but I could do without the whole "a randomized algorithm could run a company as well as a CEO" rubbish.
