I’m happy that a human—or humans, in this case—believe(s) they have discovered a novel way to do something and want to share it with the world. That doesn’t mean I take the claim at face value, I don’t, and want to wait for secondary confirmation. But it’s true that I no longer worry if I’m hearing about something because of an agenda…because I know I am, in all cases. So I skip that part and just stick with the hopeful awe.
