You mean… they’re stupid? Like they say in their title?



Being limited in time, effort, or ability isn't stupid. I've got my own mental hardware limitations with reading math and some functional programming languages. Bad enough I don't put in the effort to learn certain things.

Now, writing an article conflating limitations or lack of desire with intelligence shows... poor self-awareness.

But yeah, I prefer not to say stupid when I can be more specific. :)
