People who put "ex-Amazon," "ex-Google," "ex-Facebook," "ex-..." in their bios don't realize it often just highlights their inability to grow within those companies. The Dunning-Kruger effect at its finest.

@dotkrueger We're not anti-math. The beauty of #Bitcoin lies in math. If anything, the push back your getting is in the way some claims come across as "I'm a mathematician who just discovered #Bitcoin , I came to explain y'all how it works" and also the cringy PhD appeal to authority.
