  1. Yeah, compare that to the "peer review" we got for the vaccines.

  2. Nah, today just blame it on corona. No cosmic rays needed whatsoever.

  3. It is, except when bad science is abused to claim authority, JC.

  4. Dang it, I wish we had this sort of science on important matters like, let's say, spending a few trillion dollars on "measures against coronavirus".

  5. The only possible (sad) conclusion is people are morons. As they have ever been and always will be.

  6. Back then: madmen testing nuclear weapons. Today: madmen testing biological weapons.

  7. WTF switching topic 3x in the first 5 minutes.. get to the point.. but I suspect what the point is already, some sort of green propaganda.

  8.  @xsp1160  I heard it would make you misspell simple words.

  9.  @xsp1160  Get on with the times, there is no global warming any more. It's now called climate change because the temperature data concerning global warming does not exactly match the grand expectations.

  11. The versions in this video fool me 100% of the time... but I made a version for myself and I can only fool myself if I put it at a distance and watch with one eye.

  12.  @natalieisagirlnow  I'm referring to the quality of science underlying all the huge expenses.

  13.  @natalieisagirlnow In fact, we got an effective vaccine in 2 days (the rest was ramping up production and marketing). And a very ineffective and suspicious looking vaccination campaign apparently unwilling to admit the existence of side effects or economic conflicts of interest, preceded by tons of bad post hoc "science" surrounding other supposedly effective "measures". The refusal of the 40% of population to participate in this sort of express vaccination is a thank-you for the thoroughly unscientific handling of public health policy which destroyed all trust in the first place.

  14.  @natalieisagirlnow  I did not say it became instantly available, just that it was developed much more rapidly (mainly because research work on coronavirus vaccines was already ongoing before the pandemic). And it is a fact that e.g. mask mandanes were initialliy introduced without any science backing them, the science was "manufactured" afterwards to support already made political decisions. And it is true that hardly anyone is mentioning the side effects of vaccines. Over 200 thousand reported adverse effects in Europe alone - how many unreported? Also true that nobody really knows whether the vaccines will help or rather cause problems down the line (e.g. by creating evolutionary pressure for deadlier versions of the virus to emerge; or by making the vaccinated people who less notice symptoms spread it to those who could not be vaccinated; or by some long-term strange effect - like the thromboses that were completely missed during the initial studies). These topics are not even discussed and when you try, as a researcher, you risk your entire career.

  17. Uh, so life increases entropy, and makes the concentrated energy less "useful" ... and so implicitly we need less life... especially less human life. An interesting spin on the old eugenicist "climate catastrophe" chestnut.

  18. This problem belongs to the FP-complete class (F for F*cked).

  19. I just wanna note that a theoretical "scientist" was pwned by a non-scientist guy using his brain and experiments. Let that be a warning to other theoretical scientists and people too keen to trust their opinion on the basis that they are talking "science".
