"Programmers Need To Learn Statistics Or I Will Kill Them All"... What an insufferable asshat.

PSA: There is no reason to behave like this and this is an incredible way to alienate a bunch of people. You either offend people directly with the murder implication or they don't take you seriously because you sound like you're throwing such an extended temper tantrum that you managed to write it all in a blog.

or you can stop being offended by words put out on the internet by strangers... which is what i always recommended to basically everyone.
Or, you can be not offended and still criticise someone for being an asshat.
I'm not offended. I'm just not going to waste my time reading an article by someone behaving like a child.
It's like Doonesbury, but it came from the 80's: http://imgur.com/82QXoAj
... maybe it's meant to be a bit ironic/salty/sarcastic/venting?
