It should make you shake with laughter where Wikipedia argues credentials can't be validated. 1 professor < 2 teens. Community notes might be the most soph.. least unsophisticated of them all. Meanwhile behind the curtain the most impactful of the activity is profiling people. Nothing you say accomplishes anything you hoped for. You watch toddlers get machine gunned and by that action you are now an anti semite who shouldn't be hired. Expressed distaste for tarifs aimed at people in sweatshops earning 1 buck per day? How dare you! Is this the best we can do??? In the old days the debate would arrive at a plan then we would write and experiment towards the goal. Now we dump driftwood into the ocean and pretend we are building a boat. Like the topic, I have no idea why I'm even writing this. I should be crafting a review mechanism or at least write up a design for one. Its pretty funny if you ask me.
