I was there when someone was inviting Luke to watch the SuperBowl at a sports bar. Luke did not know SuperBowl was that day. He then politely turned down the invitation and went to work on a paper or some SIAI business.
Anyone I know would feel it was his right as a full-blooded American to not do work on Superbowl Sunday. I'm pretty convinced we're dealing with a significant outlier as far as productivity is concerned.
I don't think that's all that impressive.... shunning pro sports is almost a shibboleth among geeks and nerds. I imagine quite a few American LWers ignored the Super Bowl to do other stuff (for non-Americans, ignoring World Cup stuff) - I know I did, and I don't consider myself productive at all.
You are wrong.
Evidence to the contrary.
I'm not sure if you're serious or teasing. Because he's commenting and posting a lot on LW, he isn't productive?
Both, as usual.
That's the IRC channel. Of course, most of that comes from his tendency to paste walls of text at random intervals.
