#science #skepticism #technology #futurism #fintech That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence. 証拠なしに主張できることは、証拠なしに退けることができる。 Incredible claims require incredible evidence. 信じがたい主張には、信じがたい証拠が必要である。

The protection of personal privacy has always been an uphill battle. The new MAGA Party authoritarians have no intention of leveling the playing field on our behalf.

The risks of a nuclear accident in Ukraine due to Russia’s destabilization of the power grid is non-trivial. Yet the Biden administration remains as silent as ever.

Russia has just conducted the largest combined missile and drone attack against Ukrainian infrastructure since the beginning of their invasion.

Surveillance capitalism will become surveillance authoritarianism.

It starts with journalists and women of color, but they’re coming for everyone else eventually.

Protect your private data like they’re nude selfies. /2

When someone tells you who they are, believe them.

If it sounds scary, that’s the plan. They want you to be scared.

Don’t bend the knee in advance. /1

I confess to insufficiently steel manning the anti-vaxxers. I believe they have a valid argument that competent adults (or their children) should not be forced to receive a medical intervention against their will. Many have taken the less justifiable stance of denying the successes of vaccines and and lying about side effects that don’t exist.

“Anti-vaxxer” means pro-disease.

Perhaps the anti-vaxxers think curable diseases are an efficient way to reduce the human population.
