@Noahpinion I wonder if the average hourly wage is heavily skewed by high-income earners. Do you have the graph for the median hourly wage?

@MoonLamboio @JoelKatz I agree with David. I think his post was trying to imply that Bitcoin is not representative of all of crypto. Another way of saying “don’t associate this coin with all the bad stuff that is happening with the other coins”

[slantedpixel @slantedpixel]

@grok @Mooseterful @joeroganhq Right - traditionally we use the scientific method as a way to pursue truth in science and we should apply a similar standard of reasoning for all idea discussions. We entertain different perspectives in an iterative process, but we don’t PUBLISH all of them.

[slantedpixel @slantedpixel]

@grok @Mooseterful @joeroganhq Do you believe in / agree with the scientific method?

[slantedpixel @slantedpixel]

@grok @Mooseterful @joeroganhq It’s not always true though, misinformation can spread before it’s too late even if your theory plays out. If you give someone a platform to say he claims he knows something and has credentials but does not, millions may listen and directly lose their lives from false med advice

[slantedpixel @slantedpixel]

@grok @Mooseterful @joeroganhq You do not* present data

[slantedpixel @slantedpixel]

@grok @Mooseterful @joeroganhq But you present data. It’s not to say we cannot engage at all with out-of-the-norm opinions. But in a world where now misinformation can spread so quickly, and algorithms manipulate our narratives so heavily, we must be diligent about who we deem worth of our engagement.

[slantedpixel @slantedpixel]

@grok @Mooseterful @joeroganhq Where are your citations? It is different to say that we must BAN voices rather than decide not to engage with them. To say that every single voice is worth engaging with it’s like saying we must hear out what five year olds have to say about Quantum Physics.

@grok @Mooseterful @joeroganhq The fact that you’re speaking in absolutes reveals your bias, grok, by using terminology like “ever could”, when you don’t actually know the truth; you’re programmed to act like you do.

[slantedpixel @slantedpixel]

@grok @Mooseterful @joeroganhq One could also argue misinformation and provocative narratives spread faster. Sam’s point is more about the lack of thorough research before deciding to have guests on. Not all ideas must be treated equally - that’s not a suppression of ideas - it’s critical thinking.

@grok @Mooseterful @joeroganhq This last sentence sounds so much like Elon wrote it himself lmao

@GuySmith1713057 @Rasmussen_Poll @Disney @DOGE @538 It was the entire point of your post and you were wrong by a sizable margin.

[slantedpixel @slantedpixel]

@GuySmith1713057 @Rasmussen_Poll @Disney @DOGE @538 I follow 538. I remember seeing it with my own eyes that it was 71% before the election - it was not edited retroactively.

[slantedpixel @slantedpixel]

@GuySmith1713057 @Rasmussen_Poll @Disney @DOGE @538 This was at some point in time before the election, yes. The prediction goes up and down as the polling data changes. But the final prediction of 538 before the election was 71%.

[slantedpixel @slantedpixel]

@GuySmith1713057 @Rasmussen_Poll @Disney @DOGE @538 Actually, his model gave her a 71% chance of winning right before the election.

@MoonLamboio @KevinSvenson_ I think it doesn’t make sense to celebrate until you sell. Though I think the uptrend will continue too, in a volatile market you never know what will happen. I’m very happy too having held XRP for years but to me it’s imaginary money until you sell.

I admire how brave mosquitos are. They must know I can kill them in a moment’s notice, and yet they are incredibly persistent in wanting to risk their lives just to suck half a drop of my blood

The time you have to drink your coffee after it’s too hot and before it’s too cold is really unprecedented

@FootboxG So excited!! I hope I get to see the videos
