Strange, don't remember reading about that in Canada atm... It's asif there is some sort of toxic culture war going on...

Oh I'd bet highly that they do and it's just that it's not advertised or really accessible...

Good. They're doing their job. Although frankly, the solution is simple. Use 24hr burner phones and never when making outside contact with someone...

Not thinking about waifus and watching children's cartoons for a start. I'd suggest taking up a hobby or at the very least a DIY project that involves outdoors and try to meet people. Taking about money either serves to distance o

Not just America unfortunately. People at the very top unfortunately now listen to the bean counters far too much. This really does make social problems of an us vs them sort when all of the money manages to drift up with only the false pro

Granted bean counters fail as leaders (typically) but I would strongly argue it's the job of leaders to explain up front costs and value to been counters. E.g. yes not providing free/cheap coffee/drinks in the office saves mo

Well if it is "that revolutionary" I'm convinced the modellers need to readjust their 9billion peak human lives estimate. I think HIV is probably only one of the reasons the developed nations cared about pushing contraception

Don't worry they'll have Africa sign a contract saying they can't sue when it turns out to not quite work as it's hyped to to.

This is going to unfortunately suffer the wrath of their last flu jab being mislabeled for efficacy, safety and longevity. I'm not saying it doesn't work it clearly does cut deaths but I think public option is starting to irrevoca

And wearing a mask in the same confined space with no air circulation for about 20min is pointless but still enforced by idiotic govt policies... Unfortunately "bad science" cuts both ways when it comes to miscommunication.

I'm sorry but I have to interject here, Social science != Science. (OK I over-react but come on, the field seems barely literate in statistical methods last I looked, i.e. mean != average for all cases) Medical science has a massive re

I'm assuming you entered a field where you weren't prepared for the egos and controversy surrounding a topic. This is what a lot of students hit if they're ill prepared (this is not a bad thing on behalf of the student). I re

Given the boogey man was that we'd be out of coal by 2020 in the late 90s (I can dig out the material from British schools to show you this!) I think we can survive the over-exaggeration of how soon and alarmingly and the end of the wo

OK so to counter, Do you think 'scientific research' is in a great position from a funding perspective right now? Have you looked at the press or out the window as to how "science" is portrayed due to covid? The lack of

Amen!

This is often people not understanding the technical details of the science so fall for the logical mistake of "person on YouTube explained it so simply it must be true"... Obviously this isn't helped when the people who are

I think unfortunately we also need to protect science from idiots making very bad conclusions based on not understanding a paper... That's how we end up with 'bacon cures cancer' headlines in the daily fail...

by rob_c 5y ago
This is not helped by the lack of scientific and logical literacy in the public at large who will cherry pick to support either position on a topic and call that "homework done". The scientific process involves testing the accepte

It won't be listened to. The lack of public understanding of the scientific process and ability to parse published articles in context over the last year unfortunately shows the desperate need for scientific outreach to explain the cur
