The Game Changers documentary will likely do more harm to society than any other documentary.

For the millionth time, the documentary is contrived. Do not go vegan based of the "science" presented in it.

There are various sources that have provided counterarguments:

Since the cat is out the bag: We decided to shut down TruStory and return the investor money.

Why?

TLDR; We came to the conclusion that TruStory is too early to market. The market is not big enough (yet) for what we want to build.
I will write and publish a blog post later today that explains the "why" in more detail.
I can't express in words how thankful I am for the investors who took a chance on us, the core team who worked relentlessly, and the passionate community who gave us a reason to keep going every day.

Thank you ♥️

0/ I'm glad we started the debate on Bitcoin wealth disparity yesterday, because it got us one step closer to understanding the issue.

If you're open-minded enough to come on this learning journey with me, I'll share a summary of what I learned.
1/ If we look at the RAW numbers on @bitinfocharts, ~3% of addresses own 95% of Bitcoins.

But, this data is not ideal. Here's why:
2/ The first BIG problem with this raw figure is that exchanges represent the top wallets. Of the top 10 richest Bitcoin addresses, 7 of them are exchange wallets.

Me: "What's a red-flag for an engineer?"

Candidate: "Ugly baby syndrome"

I had no idea this term existed, but it SO perfectly answers the question. According to Urban Dictionary, it means...

"Females who, because something belongs to them or they created something (a baby) ...
...cannot step back and see that it is hideous-looking and repulsive to most everyone else who look at the same thing. Named after the medically known fact that the majority of women who birth ugly babies believe that this said baby is absolutely beautiful."
Applied to engineers/creators, this means don't love your ideas and solutions so much that you refuse to see that it actually isn't very good.

Have an open mind, be humble enough to accept feedback (good and bad), and be willing to change it if need be.

.@PhilMurphyNJ @GovMurphy let’s talk CDC science: Tetanus: (cdc.gov/tetanus/about/…) The CDC states“tetanus is different from other vaccine-preventable diseases because it does not spread from person to person.” Individual protection only. Individual choice. Simple.
CDC:”Public health experts cannot rely on herd immunity to protect people from pertussis(pt)since: pt spreads so easily, vaccine protection decreases over time, vaccines may not prevent colonization (carrying bacteria in your bodywithout getting sick) or spread of the bacteria.”
CDC reference here @LatusStacey @delbigtree @RobSchneider

Is the Biblical Exodus fact or fiction?

A compelling case is provided that exodus is a historic fact: The Bible, Geology & Archaeology are telling the same story. Christianity is evidence based. #SundayThoughts #Christianity #Science (1/18)

Did all it happened as a result of massive geological event triggered by nothing more than nature?

Or were the earthquakes, volcanoes and the tsunamis caused by divine intervention when God decided to free a nation from slavery and forge a new covenant with humanity? 🤔 (2/18)
Key events:-
*Reign of Pharaoh Ahmose
*the Exodus
*the Santorini eruption = ~1500BC and the 10 plagues and the parting of the sea induced as a result of the same

Evidences presented:-
*Ipuwer Papyrus
* 1986 disaster at lake Nyos, Cameroon,
*archaeological findings, etc. (3/18)

A little note about the #LessAndBetter meat message - I'm quite well known for calling this out as unhelpful and actually harmful to developing more sustainable farming systems, but it's not *just* because I sell meat, although that has given me an insight into the effect of such
a destructive message. The problem stems mainly from the vague nature of the message - less than what? better than what? what is better? what is 'meat'?- it's not at all clear, if you take greenhouse gas emissions, for example, cows emit methane so they must be bad, right, so
let's eat chicken instead? But hang on, chicken is the most intensively reared meat available, so how can that be 'better'? Well, maybe we first need to work out what we mean by 'meat' and how things have changed. According to FAO Stat, in the half century to the UK has changed

THREAD: About the Fortnite hysteria, from a professor who studies video games and mental health and who is also a parent of two 12-year old boys that play Fortnite. 1/N
TL;DR: The game is not evil. Nor is it particularly different in inciting the moral panic engendered by past popular media trends. Parenting is the more likely cause for concerns that are blamed on the game. 2/N
Fortnite is a well-designed game - with a super-responsive development team - that appeals to a large age-range, particularly those who love social, adrenaline-fueled play. It's doing what almost all games aim to do: Keep players engaged. 3/N

1/ Finally getting around to watching the @joerogan podcast with @drjkahn and @chriskresser. I’ll be tweeting occasionally responses into this thread....
2/ at around 13:30: @chriskresser “Back in the 13th century you had Frances Bacon who said for something to be scientific it has to be independently measurable, and falsifiable, and then accurate and valid.”...
3/ “... If you’re sitting there eating an apple. And I’m watching you do that. I can observe you’re eating the apple, I can measure how much is the apple you eat, and I can confirm or refute that you were eating the apple...”

The Trump admin has crossed a huge line. They are forbidding the @CDCgov from using the words "science-based" & "evidence-based."

Guess what? Science IS evidence-based, and the CDC shouldn't be making recommendations based on "wishes." #outrage #science

Also ridiculous: banning "transgender," "fetus," "diversity," etc. Anyone will tell you that banning something doesn't negate its existence.

In fact, I am now committed to using all of these words more.
Here we go: Vulnerable populations with high degrees of diversity such as transgender persons will suffer due to the Trump administration's retrograde views on diversity, entitlement, & science-based, evidence-based policies in favor of fetus rights.
