Doesn't surprise me to learn he's big on LW, though. A bloodless, passionless dork who mistakes dollars for IQ points and of whom it's not obvious he ever had an original thought? He might have been made in a lab for those sad nerd wannabes to identify with.

I only know Mr. Sustrik from this one article but had to mention this because it was just a too low hanging fruit in terms of criticism.
