    It’s damaging because it adds doubt to any kind of scientific consensus.

    “They” don’t want you to know that vaccines are dangerous.

    “They” are only pushing chemo for big pharma.

    “They” don’t want to admit that this was where ancient civilizations had some global empire.

    It’s the same kind of attitude of “fantastical claim you can believe if you just dismiss all the evidence that you don’t like”

    And that is very damaging because it further erodes understanding of the scientific method.


  • What is my greatest weakness?

    I’m aware of my own gaps in knowledge. I have a PHD but the more I ponder on what I learned and the program I was involved in the more I realize what I don’t know.

    My greatest strength?

    My willingness to not give too much weight to what I know and focus on what I don’t know.



  • It’s not a waste of time… it’s a waste of space. But it does allow you to “enforce” some schema. Which, very few people use that way and so, as a data store using JSON works better.

    Or… we could go back to old school records where you store structs with certain defined lengths in a file.

    You know what? XML isn’t looking so bad now.

    If you want to break the AI ask instead what regex you should use to parse HTML.
