Honestly, I'm disappointed.
The Telegraph is known for being a conservative-leaning media outlet with a mixed track record for fact checking [1]. All of the links in this article just point back to the Telegraph, with no primary source links available from this article.
The OP created an account 2 hours before they posted this article.
I posted a long-form article from well-researched pro-science outlet (MIT Technology Review, which should be a slam dunk for a cohort like HN) yesterday to crickets [2]. I'm not bitter that my post didn't get upvoted, to be clear.
I'm bitter that we're upvoting spurious content instead of balanced, fact-checked research.
Have we lost our desire for factual research and content?
