Exactly. It’s a great article if you read none of the disclaimers, know nothing about the underlying technologies, and just want to write a sensationalist article for pageviews.
- Incipient 4y agoCan't a similar analogy be applied to the majority of society? Start ups, despite a lack of foundational understanding use sensationalism to drive investment. Media in general doesn't understand anything, and uses sensationalism to drive ad revenue. Governments without really (appearing) to have a decent understanding of reality, use populist sensationalism to drive votes. It's a tad melodramatic, but my point is this approach is hardly unique, or unexpected.
