  • Some people cope with the horribleness of reality by trying to laugh. I can't say it's a good or a bad way to cope.

    But remember folks, gallows humor is only funny when you're one of the ones on the gallows. If no one stuck a carrot up your ass, it's not your place to make the joke.

  • It's not always because their reputation is bad. Sometimes they have a really bad employee that they want to replace, but who will definitely know if their job is posted. This happens a lot at the executive level.

  • Unemployed people are not a negative on society. People don't have to be employed. That's a capitalist misconception.

    Assholes are a negative on society. They actively reduce the experience for everyone else. Even productive assholes are a negative on society.

  • I'm looking at a pug right now. Uhhhhh.....

    It works if you know the traits you're trying to optimize for and don't care about the mistakes. We don't know that for humans, and we do care.

    I think you're mistaking science for psychopathy. Proper science would recognize that humans are social creatures and therefore our actions have impact across society, and we need to take that into account.

    Also, try and breed two very smart people. You rarely get a stable smarter person.

  • Is it though? Time and again it's been shown that having a very wide basic genetic options is the healthiest for a species. Evolution favors adaptability.

    Now if you're talking about weeding out and genetic issues, diseases, and known problems, yes. We do that today.

  • Maybe. But the scientific method and logic are provably functional. You see a thing, you replicate the thing, you can then do more things.

    So it's not a huge stretch to say that getting people to follow those methods is an improvement.
