If he bothers you so much because of his politics, don't follow him.
I don’t. I saw it on this site and made a pithy political comment. Did I hurt your sense of oh-aren’t-I-just-the-epitome-of-20yo-cool

And don’t click on posts about his comic.

It's tough to be credible when you build your career on a smarter than thou character, yet you support intelligent design in the same comic.
Vaanhalen
It's a comic. The only test is "is there a punch line" gtfo
humaneffigy
People like you are why Jesus drowned the unicorns in the flood. Their rainbow blood is on your hands, you piece of shit.
It was in the animated series, I watched in awe as Dogbert, the most smug & mocking of stupidity character Dogbert, denied evolution for ID
Irreal
Its also a world with talking dogs, cats, rats and dinosaurs.
It just sucks that they talk a big game, talk down others as ignorant, then talk down evolution, & talk up ID. We've all got blind spots tho
You need to stop treating comics like church
RandomActOfConfusion
I disagree with his personal politics, but the comics are usually pretty funny.
Credible ....we are talking about a cartoon with an intelligent cat and you get upset about his beliefs ...
OooOo, I'm in the cartoon & they have me getting upset? I'm in a cartoon! Please tell me it's not Dilbert, that one is kinda hard to respect
johnvictor
Is there a funny creator that isn't full of shit?
KingdomOfDimensions
How does someone misunderstanding one topic affect their credibility on a completely unrelated topic?
155DangerClose
Being religious means you're not credible? guess we're going to have to rescind all the scientific discoveries made by religious scientists
Really depends on the context, I think.
dalaiyoda
The relevant points here are "parsimony" and "incredible claims require incredible evidence."Saying "God did it" explains any/every/nothing.
Evolution's pretty well supported. You can be religious and also not deny scientific evidence. It's geocentricity all over again.
Dismissing evolution in favour of ID with a character who mocks others as ignorant and intellectually lazy damages your credibility. Greatly
"I don't believe tectonic plates move" "wow dude that means you have no credibility to write comics" See where i'm going with this?
I even saw where you were going in the comment you deleted about what ID is. It was to a place called "mistaken" :P
I haven't deleted any comment. And nice rebuttal.
Flapjacktastic
No, basing scientific theories on your religious dogma rather than preponderance of evidence makes you not credible. Gravity's fine.
What evidence? How can you possibly prove that the world was not started by a higher power?
I can't prove it wasn't started last Wednesday. But I don't need to prove claims of non-existence, just positive existence.
2/ started the process of evolution/everything else
We're not talking about Earth is only 7,000 years old stuff here. I am saying you can be a credible person and still believe A higher power
That's not falsifiable, just like ID. Evolution is. Because it's based on science. Evolution is a fact. ID is magic, it's shady creationism.
When I hear the term Intelligent Design i'm assuming that just means that a God created the universe as we know it. Are you thinking it's
2/ something else? Because that would be the same as creationism
ElRoboDiablo
Apparently Scott Adams is a huge Trump supporter now. Take that how you will.
Well we believe in witch hunts now so let's burn someone at the stake
googi14
No, he’s not.
strongseth
Of course he does. It's proof that his comics are based on reality.
DarksteelPenguin
The comics is still excellent.
cousteau
No Trump reference in any of his comics so I guess it's OK
He's all over the place. He believes in New Age affirmations & vegetarianism, and claims to be left of Bernie, but is a MRA who loves Trump.
Nykidemus
Ow my brain. ><
Gosuamakenatek
He is a surprising person, I'll give him that.
Mattcatt85
He’s more of a masochist than anything. He just didn’t want a woman to be president.
You should be embarrassed for writing that
Ya...that’s fair.
Bukulu
*misogynist. Maybe a masochist too, but I don't have evidence to support that
doesntmatter
*chauvinist?
doba78
Why does his political beliefs matter in any way?
eazolan
Because everything is political now. Trump likes tacos, and if you like tacos you support Trump and need to lose your job.
MinBlick
Well I think America need to lose the country for 4 years so you all can think of what you did.
onlyhalfghost
Just over half of them didn't vote for Trump, though; it's the way their (un)proportional representation works.
As I said. Let them think about what they did.
yagumbus
Because if you support the guy, there’s a good chance you’re a cunt. Because, you know, he’s a cunt.
chesirecats
*why DO his political beliefs beliefs matter in any way?
710FPS
I'd say he's more a student of how easy it is to troll and manipulate people. He predicted Trump's win, that's true.
k4FoodSmasher
He had about a 50% chance of being right.
You mean the guy who accused twitter of treason for deleting some of his tweets? Who was he trolling then?
Maboroshi1994
Iirc he said by a landslide. Perhaps overconfident. But still he was right. I didn't want him to win but I put him at 50/50 in 2016.
I thought either he would win or that other guy would. I was half right!
Not what I meant. Most assumed Hillary had the election in the bag, no chance of trump winning. I thought he could but by a hair at best.
I was just joking, maybe it didn't make as much sense as I thought.
Obama won in a "land slide" and he only won swing states by 3%.
You people are retarded. Y'all make every possible thing about politics and judge people on how they vote. If you do that you're the problem
Generally speaking, you judge people on their values, and the actions that illustrate their values. Like you did just there.
2/ strong defining trait of your person?
Who you vote for? Depends. Who you ardently support? Of course, this very obviously says something about your values.
That's all well and good. But who you vote for says nothing of your personal character or value. Are you suggesting who you vote for is a
Values, not value. It says everything about your values. Even flipping a coin for it says something about your values.
So let's say I voted for Hillary (I'm Canadian) What are my values if it says everything?

jimmyriba
"Modern software", wtf? The only challenging thing about "modern software" is that it's sometimes dumbed down so much it gets in the way.
Bytencoder
Do you know how to use modern software?
SadToSay
First, do you think he needs an explanation of what computers are? Secondly, software is way more intuitive these days than in the past.
GLUTINUSMAXIMUS
Hey go easy on the comic maker he's probably ol.... I mean mature
He thinks men are naturally inclined to rape, and women are comparable to children and the mentally deficient. "Mature" is not the word here
ToasterDent
"modern software"? Like you now use a tablet and three 4k monitors with some foot pedals? Shit's been the same for 25 years.
Less keyboard and more mouse, and that horrible tool ribbon fad, but I guess that's a per-app issue.
HopeHubris
That's hardware, software can change quite a bit
Yeah it generally gets easier to use

Rubylith tape was used in early microchip design. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubylith
That's why they still call releasing a design to fabrication "tape out"
CastIronFriedPan
Potatoes of course. Maybe corn. Hmmm yummy
TacoPrime
With magic.exe... seriously magic is a program to design chips
JHawke
Being good with cad, does not mean you are good with something else.
ForgotMyOtherAcct
But being on the cutting edge of chip design probably means you're far from clueless
I used to think like that, sadly I have met too many humans in my time on this planet.
How many of them designed microchips? Have you *ever* met a chip designer who had difficulties using "modern software"? It's just stupid.
luckycelticboy
They do not use CAD. Source: dad does analog ESD design. And most of the guys that do what he does are very familiar with modern software.
Does the name of the software change anything about the comment though?
ThePunisherJB3
CAD stands for computer aided design. So, unless he is designing a PCB by hand, he uses CAD. If he does design a PCB by hand, props to pops.
CAD stands for Computer Aided Design, but is the name for a very specific software class. You don't design a chip like you design bridges.
