he's also one of the few people to pull themselves fully out of the /g/ cesspit.

I'm not even sure he lurks anymore.



What is that?


/g/ is a board on 4chan for discussing technology. 4chan is a loosely-moderated website where you can discuss things anonymously. It's unpleasant, would not recommend.


It has a certain allure and acceptance for fringe modes of thought that keeps people around.

I myself started browsing in high-school and haven't been able to stop since -- I can probably attribute the development of my entire engineering philosophy to the place.


I recommend, even if people write crazy/terrible stuff, the space is important, part of the full spectrum.



Only the cesspit people know.


well done him
