This re-routing around a genuine problem is sad to me. I think it is the unstated acceptance that the 'new normal' is in fact here to stay.

"When you can find British communities that still thrive away from the major cities it is magical" Where's that, do you think?

I was referring to the intellectual side not the remunerative side.

Absolutely. How do career, peer recognition, and intellectual freedom stack up against up against grants and tenure? If you are honestly interested in areas that off-trend, would you be able to get anywhere? I think the answer is no. You

I don't mind being downvoted, but it is the reality. What incentives are there for good science to become known to all? There are billions of incentives that say the opposite. I think some people believe in 'science' like

If some scientists did complete some work comparable to the works "Darwin, Einstein, or Galileo" do you think this would reach everyday folk? Or would industry monetise said discovery, and that might best be done by withholding i

That graphic is interesting to me, as it illustrates what the view is like at the 3-letter-agencies control centers, who have been slurping up our data for years.

If your views are aligned with what the echo chamber agrees with, you will be able to reply. If you do not get the echo chamber's approval, you are downvoted and cannot reply. What's the conspiracy?! Its a fact. But yes - it rea

How do I feed myself? I don't know what you mean. Government's goal is to implement whatever governance is decided to be best to manage people. You say a mob stormed congress. I saw a dramatic event, that justifies a lot of auth

Its not a spam filter. I am not posting too fast in trying to reply to responses. The reason I am blocked is because my opinions are not popular and they are downvoted. This is the issue: HN is an echo chamber. Those who can downvote (thos

What would you think if I said to you that there is a conspiracy so broad and deeply embedded that a small group is able to take a set co-ordinated actions, across the planet, with every country taking part that constrain individuals to the

To me, it was always the case. I think TV was set up to be the most powerful propaganda delivery mechanism. That's pretty clear, when you look at how the BBC was created. But - for more info, so that you can confirm this is explicitl

> Hah... so, did you verify this stuff about MSM being a force to mislead? Its obvious. If you look at what is presented, you are given lots of claims, but very few facts. Its just a load of evidence-free noise. What's to evaluat

Think about it. If people have the wrong information, that means that they cannot respond meaningfully. If you are swimming in a world of lies, how will you give the correct answer? UPDATE/EDIT And, in other conspiracy news, I am una

> No set of agreed-upon facts? This is the core problem. Who do you trust? Fox news or CNN. The answer for me is I trust no one. They are all liars. I verify for myself. All governance (government, legal, media, military, education,

Why would the earth speed up? Are we going downhill?

we have also not had animal trials - there is very little data at all. We will get that in 2 years, once the live trials are completed.

Fair enough - it is somewhat ambiguous though. What are they storing in DNA? Maybe it is marketing speak as you say.

On second thoughts - maybe I have it wrong - maybe its not within the person being vaccinated and they are talking more generally? Its actually not that clear.

Did you think you were going to get a vaccine? No - Moderna themselves suggest you are getting an operating system. What is an operating system in a human body? Well, it would be a controller of bodily functions. Perhaps it would control

Thanks for your comment. Right - but I really do want comments. This site and many many others have write access and manage. If a self-hosted solution ever caused me issues on account of spam etc, I'd review the situation.

I'd love to hear about self-hosted alternatives, especially ones where you can have a comments section. There are plugins in Wordpress that do comments (not brilliantly), but alternatives seem quite complex. It would be great to be a

I'm glad this was voted down (for once). I put this comment out there as a sarcastic, antithetical opinion to my own - a little experiment. I half-expect the HN crew to vote it up.

Its good for society. For the child it is entertaining and also entrains static sedentary behaviour. This will be useful for the future as we really have very little need of nature or vigorous movement - the longer the time we can remain st

Its a great philosophy! Compare and contrast with using a service like google. Not only do you have 0 idea about the algorithm they use, your data is extracted for their benefit. You don't even know what data they have on you, and ho

Cheers. I'd be interested to hear what experiences you have had. Feel free to point me to a thread, or conversation...

Yes. Everyone is so used to being manipulated, and, it seems, without the ability to work things personally, according to their principles. (Do people even know what principles are? Is it whatever is expedient or are there lines that can
