I love my friend, but yes, he's been a bit ignorant on many things.

I would strongly prefer if you specifically never interacted with any of my posts.
Sorry, I can't help you with that.

Knowing how to plant the seed is crucial too.
The best way I've found is to just ask questions like you don't understand the topic but are interested in learning more. Their logic is going to have holes, and you want to guide them into stumbling into one.
The hard part is asking probing questions without sounding like you're trying to pull a "gotcha".
Gotta coddle their ego because man, are the stupid of this world confident!

Me: This is a seed.
Them: "No, fuck you."
Me: This continues to be a seed.

I’ve tried planting the seed a few times with people who voluntarily wiretap their own house with an Alexa. Each time they’ve picked it up and ran further with it, like “Oh I know! If I mention seat belt covers, suddenly amazon is recommending a bunch of seat belt covers in my home page!” No thoughts at all of doing anything with this conclusion.
I’ve also witnessed planting the seed working in plenty of other scenarios, just thought this particular fumble was common and particularly funny.
Yeah, it's really hard to get lay people to understand infosec issues. I had to create a separate VLAN for my wife because she couldn't tolerate being behind a VPN or pihole because she wants to click on sponsored ads on Google.
And don't get me started on how she feels about the fact that I password protect all. She knows my password, but still thinks I'm hiding something.
But I work in InfoSec, so of course I'm hiding everything. Just not from her.

Of course. I am, after all, Jesus; I know the best medical terms – tremendous terms.
According to everybody: "We've never known anyone with better medical terms, just amazing stuff"

...I don't like that comma
You can't fix this person's entire educational history.

They come up to me – great people, smart people – and they come up and they tell me: "Mr. Technician, sir, we're so impressed with your terminology. Everybody's talking about it. China's talking – " they don't have very good doctors over there, folks, so they come to me for advice.

"We didn't have 'neurodivergent' people when i was young" he said, cradling his beer bottle.
While gambling away his money

Its ok to just laugh in someone's face and call them an uneducated idiot, who has no idea what they're talking about.
You know how just can ban/block morons on social media, so you don't have to hear from them any more?
You do can that in real life too.
Hahaha! What a fuckin' moron.

You and the guy you're arguing with feel the same way.
One or both of you is wrong.

Agreed. Should be a colon

At work, the team isn't very good at python. They're mostly SQL people. Which is fine. I'm happy to mentor and guide.
The product lady said to me "can you write a guide on confluence about how to do python good?"
I'm like, people write whole published books about that you gotta pay money for. I'm not going to bang out a couple paragraphs and code blocks and suddenly people are heavy weights.
I wrote something anyway because I don't want to further irritate the product lady.

I was a TA in a class that expected knowledge of C. A lot of students who had only ever used Python asked if I could ring them up to speed. One student even asked if he could write it in Python and then I could "just translate it over"

People actually click those? That's horrifying.

I went to Lowe's a couple of months ago and that night on Amazon I got recommendations for drill bits and cabinet door pulls. The weird thing was that I did buy some drill bits at Lowe's but I just looked at cabinet pulls there. I'm guessing my phone was linked to in-store footage and AI noted where in the store I stopped to look at stuff. As a kid I used to look forward to living in the future, now I kinda regret it.

Just add semi colons and brackets, right?

Yeah, too many people rag on Socrates without really understanding him.
