One of the most aggravating things to me in this world has to be the absolutely rampant anti-intellectualism that dominates so many conversations and debates, and its influence just seems to be expanding. Do you think there will ever actually be a time when this ends? I'd hope so once people become more educated and cultural changes eventually happen, but as of now it honestly infuriates me like few things ever have.

    I have a background in networking.

    I know what a DMZ is.

    I have no idea what these 2 are.

    Yes, I heard about it at some point.

    I would have thought a fair few number of people knew that. Maybe it’s just your barber who doesn’t care enough.

    Not being able to give correct answers to these questions (one of them being fairly technical) doesn’t indicate anything about her intellect though
