Scrolling through that pudding site, right away I notice the tell tale sign of midwit misconception.
- a story makes claims about women in the news, without any controls or comparison to men (i.e. it's useless)
- a story presents one of those toy economic models about random trades between people, not realizing they are complete nonsense with zero predictive power
This is just what I notice on a first visit. It's extremely well produced nonsense.
