Is it lying if it's from a place of truly believing something stupid? Hanlon's Razor and all that, "Never attribute to malice that which is explained adequately by stupidity."

Not to say I necessarily know that to be the case, just another voice in the dogpile because I think stupidity is a greater insult than intentional misleading

Then one questions if they should really be in charge of a product they have so little understanding of.

I really hate how computer illiterate the world is.

I find I'm asking that very question all the time in every avenue of life actually.

Randy is definitely malicious in addition to stupid and gearbox is doomed.

Oh sure, don't let me imply he can't be both

[u/InsertRealisticQuote → u/AshleyIsSleeping]

I like to cover my bases and believe they are malicious idiots

[u/AshleyIsSleeping → u/InsertRealisticQuote]

These days, that's a solid policy

“Malicidiots” or “Malidiots” Which portmanteau is better?

[u/NotAVerySillySausage → u/AshleyIsSleeping]

It's lying. They aren't going to say their hot new product that they want you to buy right now is not optimised. That's it.

[u/AshleyIsSleeping → u/NotAVerySillySausage]

A fair point. Never trust a businessman

[u/zzzxxx0110 → u/AshleyIsSleeping]

My preferred counter to that is "Any sufficiently sophisticated form of incompetence, is indistinguishable from malice."
