Aww, look at John using smart sounding words, I bet he thinks he sounds like an adult.

I guess even Wu is acknowledging that Twitter is his home now, huh?

And I'm sure it had nothing to do with you being wrong.

Wu is wrong on purpose so it can have more excuses to scream I AM WOMAN

Same reason threats against John Flynt = block and any threat mentioning it is a woman is not blocked and screenshotted.

I have to admit that at the very least Brianna is doing well acting the part of a woman if she sucks this hard at math ;- )

She's saying those things because she thinks it makes her look smart.

I think what John "I'm a female software engineer" Flynt meant to say is that it isn't liner which is the red line.

Stop mansplaining!

Sadly a sizable number of third wave feminists do actually believe things like math and logic are tools of the patriarchy.

"Can't you see why math is sexist and patriarchal, you shitlord? Just look at 0 + 1 = 1. The 0 is clearly a vagina and the 1 is a filthy penis. When you put the penis with the vagina, only the value of the penis remains! I need to lay down. All this math is triggering me"

Worse, that's Peano arithmetic. And Peano sounds an awful lot like penis.

It's a good thing when bad people cripple themselves with stupidity.

Couldn't agree more.

It's amazing how a person's perception of others is reflected in their idealized selfs.

We know who Brianna Wu really is, and the comedy comes from seeing her build a shallow identity around herself and going into a narcissistic rage when other people see through it. She can't even listen to advice on dog-raising without getting peeved, because what kind of simpleton needs to be told how to walk a dog? Other people need that kind of help, not the great Brianna Wu

We know what kind of fictional person she wants to be. But she keeps failing. Because to Brianna Wu, what a person does with their time is not as important as what they signal to others. She's trying to be the type of woman that she idealized going back to John Flynt's comic days. Bold, independent, self-sufficient and a genius. But those women were cartoons, they didn't have lives beyond some shallow character traits and passing mentions of hobbies within a few panels. They didn't have struggles, encounter real problems, grow as people, or face their own shortcomings like adults.

Which sort of reflected how he saw women and people in general. Not as people, but as parts of people. They have hair, clothes, sassy one-liners and obscure references to nerd topics. They don't do work, but have occupations, they don't have accomplishments, just titles.

Brianna assumes that being a software developer is about having a title and tweeting about nerd subjects all day, because her idea of a developer doesn't go beyond what she saw in the media. Time magazine interviews with Silicon valley titans aren't technical and don't go much beyond listing accomplishments and dropping some altruistic-sounding quotes. That's all it takes, right? It sure as heck doesn't involve watching mind-numbing 3-hour tutorial videos about obscure APIs. It doesn't involve realizing you wasted an entire afternoon debugging because you spelt a word wrong. It doesn't involve having to rely on a heavily-accented gross indian guy for help all the time. It doesn't involve having coworkers and students younger than you explain to you why your code is bad, even though you have a degree and they don't.

Nope, computer programming is all glamour and accolades.

Ever notice how Wu never really reveals whether or not she actually made a mistake, she just yells about men correcting her. She's just trying to get everyone to assume that she was correct and the men are just saying this because they're sexist, which with Bri only works on people who have zero knowledge of technology because anyone who does and knows anything about Wu will usually just laugh because they know she's a dumbass. She's a strong believer of the "if I don't specifically say it, it's not lying" philosophy, but she's still not very good at convincing anyone but complete idiots.

Wait, weren't some of Wu's textures in the iOS version of R60 4096 x 4096?

Most of them were.

 

[Kosher Dill]

Most of them were.

Over the objections of the rest of her staff, no less.

 

[OldDayz]

I guess the big question is why? Why do that for a game that doesn't need them. Did John ever fess up to why he overruled on this decision?
