I can choose media, ranging from the shocking, hysterical and to the somber and predictable. The former being privately owned, and the latter state owned. So I see private media as entertainment and shock value / horror-show.

Indeed. This should be their Chernobyl. But the reasons are all the paranoia and fear that all the cognitive dissonance creates in such a repressing atmosphere.

Nobody expects the Spanish I^Hpandemic, that only happens once every 100 years or so. This should be expected, and the previous administration did everything to demolish whatever was left of pandemic response teams and plans, before it hit.

This is just "bread and circus". Those who look deeper down will see more going on underneath the layers of policymaking. Though, the real workers will need support for new ideas and improvements later.

What about "America First", which supported Weimar Republic in 30's, isn't nationalistic? The idea was good (hit mark audience that needed respite from all the "great globalization"), but the execution was abou

If you listen to sane people, they are saying just that. Though, media will report what various individuals and agencies report, and they will contradict eachother.

Please show citations of that then, of mainstream media doing the: slander, censor and humiliate, instead of just reporting one side or the other as usual. Heck, US has a mature president now even acknowledging there are two major competing

I think the core problem here is giving away your powers to amoral corporations.

Vaccine status may grant more freedoms to more people, but can only happen with some degree of controlling the masses. You have to at some point, see beyond your nose tip.

At some level you always need a way to filter out noise, so quality have to improve to get signal.

There have always been fringe opinions. They too get a much wider audience today.

Adults are, generally, prejudiced, biased and unfair. Most people will have no problem with favouring their friends, but vehemently accuse others of favouritism, nepotism, etc. By nature, we are suspicious of strangers, and rightly so, but

Literate programming is for programs that is static and don't ever change much. Works great for those cases though. No, what works is the same that worked 20 years ago. Nothing have truly changed. You still have layers upon layers, tha

Monads are not strictly necessary in any language, and don't have to cover I/O at all. They are instead the same interface to a useful abstraction. They may as such be used together with all helper-functions and types, for many si

I expect the pendulum to continue swinging.. That boys are underperforming in education will need to be addressed too. I just don't expect feminists to fight for such causes, but would be pleasantly surprised if they did.

I want to think it's because leadership, but people also do it for themselves "competing" against other people. It's kind of a prisoner's dilemma. It's kind of shitty anyways.

Not a "Principal", but you guys would rather be followed up by a business person who would come up with their revised requirements and timelines, each day or the other? Or obey the commands of the technological genius that somehow

I wouldn't be surprised to find gene expressions making Western-style education and standardized tests sub-optimal for whole swaths of people (hypothesis). Imagine if your very makeup go against what you're told should be just rou

Memory in gene expressions might even account for the difference. Gene expressions can change during a lifetime and across a couple of generations (ie. memory of famine can last 2 generations in gene expression). There are outliers that go

Before self identification, there might be external expectations and cues. Survival of children depend on picking up cues of parents, and then peers.

But were you shamed, by peers or parent? Even a funny look or surprise will be cues children pick up immediately. Not that social conditioning is a bad thing, but humans just don't survive in a bubble.
