@jascha Also, "they paid off the scientists to say [something untrue]" (or to hide the truth) is another sign that the speaker doesn't know a damn thing about scientists (and probably has an axe to grind and/or some snake oil to sell you).
If they were that motivated by money, they wouldn't have gone into science in the first place. They'd have gotten an MBA or something.

When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.
Just think of all those brilliant scientists driven to evil madness BECAUSE no one would listen to them!

@jascha likewise, when someone says "doctors don't want you to know," it's actually that insurance companies don't want you to know.

@jascha I am a scientist and I want you to know that you have totally nailed it

@jascha Having worked with Data Scientists, it’s rare to find them exercised about something unless they’re very sure or concerned about it. If there was the slightest chance the data was exaggerated or incorrect they would be very quiet.
After all, their career depends on their reputation for providing accurate predictions.

@jascha "*anyone* don't want you to know" is one of the title templates that I simply skip altogether. Other honorable mentions are "# must things to do to/before/with #" and "*any statement*, and why it is a good thing".

@jascha Scientists don't want you to know about Roko's Basilisk.

@luboganev @jascha clickbait templates, for sure. Someone should make a clickbait hiding browser addon.

@jascha that makes total sense in the real world. but you cannot overlook the fact that these motherfuckas are LARPing.

@jascha TBH, I've never heard the phrase "Scientists do not want you to know" spoken or written before today.

@jascha "Scientists SHOCKED by..." thing scientists researched, painstakingly gathered evidence for, wrote and, crucially, *published* a paper on.

Not exactly, for example, medical research is riddled with misogyny. The bias towards white males in scientific studies does lead to conclusions which are incorrectly applied to the whole of humanity.
@GutterPoetry these studies aren't very sciencely imo
@knowprose @jascha -
Scientists generally want you to know, the people that finance their work on the other hand? It depends on how marketable is the discovery
@csolisr this obsession with demonising funders is the same strand of anti-science, honestly.
Most funders are also people, part of an org set up to... Fund science.Globally, much research is funded by governments (so via taxes, interested in R&D and the benefits to local areas that brings, primarily), charities (and ultimately citizens for the most part) and industry. And some big donors, but again mostly because they have pet causes.
Sure there can be some conflicts of interest with industry and government and wealthy individuals. But overwhelmingly it's just... Funding.It's disclosed in publications. The scrutiny should be on scammers - in the US, medical insurance systems for example, and the 'wellness industry', multibillion dollars wasted on trash studied and marketing worldwide. And 'alt med'.
This idea that scientists' funders are all out there making nefarious decisions and invalidating research findings is just as rubbish as making scientists out to be evil secret-hoarders.

There's a conspiracy theory that's been around for as long as I know; that a cure for cancer has been found, but is being kept secret because the pharmaceutical corporations have paid off the discoverer(s).
As if someone could resist the acclaim, the historical significance and the Nobel Prize. -

C’è una firma. E la firma conta o forse no. Comunque la troverete, andando avanti. Dovrebbe essere la firma giusta (vera) ma intorno tutto può essere falso. Non far caso a me. Io vengo da un altro pianeta. Io ancora...Vedi l'articolo

I have this suspicion that the ATproto stack, at least the stuff from Bluesky, is heading towards "majority-vibecoded" but that's mostly just from seeing a lot of posts from the Bluesky eng team rather than me having spent much time in the codebase
Why is def hugely responsible for Bluesky/ATProto's design and if *he's* mostly letting Claude write 99% of his code, the rest of the eng team is likely to be heading in that direction too?

@snow tornando a meshtastic, non ho ben capito la cosa dei canali. Devo settare il canale della mia regione o quello "generale"?

@cwebber all of the "ethical" startup types are doing it

Atproto is centralized because every dev there seems to rely unhealthy on claude

@francina1909 Sono passata alla coppetta quando ho iniziato a pedalare, e neanche avevo mai usato un assorbente interno. È decisamente più igienica e pulita degli assorbenti. Detto questo, una cosa non esclude l'altra: l'inquinamento è provocato sia dalla guerra che dagli assorbenti usa e getta. E per fortuna esistono tanti modi per gestire le mestruazioni.
