You can change your attitude here and play the game of trying to lose whatever karma you have. They won't let you remove posts, so they can have toxic ones as well. I find a sort of balance in being a vitriolic jerk on here.

Tone policing is a weak retort. If you'd rather we just sing Kumbayah and talk about science fiction then yeah! We could even staff these centrifuges with autonomous bipedal androids a la Lt. Commander Data. Those are becoming attainable in much the same way as your mechanically simple, cost effective, never been built zero g metal gas centrifuges. Learn something with that big brain of yours.

I don't want to be too abrasive, but people without families or hobbies tend to fuck up work life balance for the rest of us. It's very tiring dealing with people like you who do nothing but work and bitch about how they don't have anything else going on.

So add something to them instead of saying that the problems of Scrum don't exist because of your own dubiously stated experience.

mention a plausible sounding skill that doesn't exist as a requirement for the job, ask about specific experience, and reject applicants mentioning it. it's the same level of sophistication as a display:none honeypot field on a form. no need to be such a tool.
