bryan_rasmussen··on How I became a con artist (2010)
You know anyone could shoot a man in Reno just to watch them die but it takes a real super genius like me to talk at them until they just commit suicide.
bryan_rasmussen··on Trolling patent trolls: A proposal
"Don’t retain counsel, show up to court or don’t and let them rule however the judge chooses to do so. If the judge awards damages too unreasonable to pay simply let the LLC become insolvent."

seems fraudulent if it can be shown that you are doing this to escape paying fees that the court says you have to pay.

Also it seems to me more likely that you would be found guilty of willful infringement if doing this, given that you have obviously set up a structure to get out of paying fees for infringing.

for patent troll might be smart way to increase fees - go after just your llc, you close it down open another one, go after both llc and your company show connections, show that you were infringing before and are now infringing again with another cover llc = bigger fees for infringement, TADA!

What problems are there that you would consider choosing a statically typed language for them, because of the typing?

1. ran over a bunch of people 2. pounded rhythmically on the steering wheel while singing "bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do"
bryan_rasmussen··on United Nations to Adopt Asteroid Defense Plan
Yeah! It's also ridiculous because of the quote at the beginning: " When a meteor exploded over Chelyabinsk, Russia in February, the world’s space agencies found out along with the rest of us, on Twitter and YouTube. "

which totally demonstrates how unnecessary this is and how " it's pretty obvious one country or organization, somewhere, is going to try something about it if it means human race survival"

I guess the organizations that will be doing something about it will be either 'Twitter' or 'youtube', my money is on Twitter. Have you tried Bootstrap, they will totally be able to handle this issue.

Well you could build one quick with fnordmetric https://github.com/paulasmuth/fnordmetric In fact looking at the screenshots of reportr it looks very like fnordmetric as well.
bryan_rasmussen··on What is the worst thing about working at Microsoft?
Ok, while I might agree that surely Microsoft has been beneficial to someone over the years other than Microsoft, and while I might also say that I preferred various versions of Windows to Mac or forms of Linux up until some years ago and I have quite a bit of experience with Microsoft technologies that I don't regret that much, when you say something like this 'Nobody is going "damn, that cotton gin forced out all those sickle makers, they really hurt society".' it is pretty ludicrous because HEY! people think the cotton gin hurt society for a whole other reason than it drove out the sickle makers!!
