She's exploiting a real problem (or what she deems to be a real problem) to sell her book.

imagine being a teenage girl and overhearing boys talk about how girls are dumb

What do you think girls think and say of boys? This is just stupid (and incorrect) victimism, directed at a gender, when the other one acts the same.

Someone using that argument is either 1) completely unaware of the experiences of the other gender or 2) being dishonest.

After some years the restaurant closed for renovation, and when it reopened there were completely different people working there, and the food was way worse. It was probably sold or went under new management, though they kept the name. So all the reviews this place had gotten over the years were really no longer relevant, as it was effectively a new restaurant. Yet all the Yelp reviews remained.

Well, it makes sense doesn't it? When you buy a restaurant you get to keep the name, location, word of mouth, etc. Makes sense you also keep the reviews.

It might be full of those scanned PDFs that are 100 MB each.

why is it that when a safety limit has been established and later on reached, that (seemingly) uninformed people start walling by screaming 'but the jobs' and 'but the power'. None of those should be more important than a reactor problem you'd think.

And if it depended on those people the reactor would keep running until it exploded. It's almost as if democracy was stupid and ineffective.

That's weird, since I seem to remember nuclear is very safe.

So the classic case of "I chose GPL because everybody chooses GPL because it's the most used licence but I forgot to read what it actually says and I'm upset"

I don't understand the point of this post. It's full of fluff. Is he arguing that people should open source the add-ons they create for Blender?
