neverrroot··on U.S. science is in chaos
Naval had a great tweet recently:

“Science is not a process, a credential, or an institution. It is the unflinching pursuit of truth, carried out by the few, co-opted by the many.”

When did we start institutionalizing it? How about letting the truth be bent? What about the focus on consensus? That’s also what lead to the current situation.

> How did we get here? Careful what you wish for, that’s how.

Just a simple example: when you play with firm biological facts, you might just open it all up to being bent. But then, wasn’t that maybe the goal all along?

neverrroot··on This Month in Ladybird
The power of one, the power of a mind who can’t take no for an answer to the inner voice.

And don’t lecture me about the many, for the many wouldn’t have started it, they joined the one.

You know the one, cherish him.
