The powerful tend to be up to 5 times more likely than the general population to have dark triad personalities.

Thanks for flagging this!

Note that “flagging” has a specific meaning on HN.

10-4.

I meant it in the sense of "bringing it to our collective attention."


Rapid thermal transformation :D

SpaceX is going to use that one!


I love it! I'm going to have to create a Slack bot to pipe whatever I type through it.

In: Management's stupidity gives me a rash on my nutsack
