Very difficult not to click on this headline.
- Karuma 6y agoAgreed. This one was a better title: > Scientists communicate with people in lucid dreaming state

- optimalsolver 6y agoI failed the test. Interesting article, though.
- sep_field 6y agoI always read the comments here before the article. Usually the comments tell me everything I need to know and are more interesting. Most of the time I never end up clicking on the actual article because I've gotten enough info from the comments.
- jnsie 6y agoSame. It happens often that the comments repudiate or at least undermine the article's claim. By the time I've read a few I've lost interest in said article.
- danaliv 6y agoYou should read the articles. You'll find that a lot of the "repudiations" are less convincing, or at least less interesting. (I didn't read this article.)
- tkahnoski 6y agoI make a point to never upvote without reading the article first. Only signal boost new information/insights not rehashes.
- anthony_romeo 6y agoI have tendencies to want to do this, but I choose to stop myself, to remember that random (hopefully) people on the Internet aren't necessarily more reliable than some random article on the Internet. It's valuable to check one's sources, but how many people actually check the source of some random upvoted commenter? How many people have the capacity to verify the veracity of convincing-sounding Hacker News comments?
- godelzilla 6y agoSolid bait. It would have helped to mention AI. 4/5 stars.
