An apology since I was kinda a jerk the other day

[xiphias]

A couple days ago, I posted a thing about how much I didn't like JavaScript, and in it, I took a dig at MBAs. A friend of mine pointed out that this is just not cool.

Yeah.

Taking a dig at a class of people is just wrong in general. And taking a dig at people because of something they spent time, energy, work, and study at? Something that they take pride in? Mocking an actual achievement?

Yeah, I was a jerk.

I'm sorry.

Masters of Business Administration. It's a Masters' level degree in, yes, administering businesses, and is often a prerequisite for management positions of a given level of responsibility. I'm not actually entirely clear on everything that one learns as an MBA, but I believe it includes things about managing people, of managing resources for project allocation, and even some micro- and macroeconomics. It's a pretty wide-ranging group of topics, basically, as I understand it, being something along the like of "the group of skills which will allow someone to be effective in a capitalistic and/or corporate environment and market", but Undauntra can correct me if I'm off-base on that.

Ah, you did mean that. Okay... Well that's that cleared up. :)
