So, we are left to wonder why YT suddenly cares so very much about foreign countries being accused of meddling in the US election.

I wouldn't regard those downvotes as valid. There is a large and vocal group on this thread with no apparent regard for HN's culture. They appear to be from "out of town".

Not an article, but a large amount of well-organised evidence (not great on mobile): https://hereistheevidence.com CodeMonkeyZ on Twitter is biased, but links to interesting materi…

Or the commentary is largely coming from those normally absent from HN.

Where is the evidence? Https://hereistheevidence.com

As I explained, most of the research indicating positive results is old (meaning before the 70's). Though there were some in the 90's (eg, William Rea et al. https://eloverkanslig.…

I can well understand this being true. Without discounting it, I've also had roughly equivalent, but opposite experiences, with flight mode and sleep.

Yes, I would generally agree. But I think it's fine, and justified to investigate the (many) claims of EMF sensitivity. People having a seizure because they walked past someone eat…

I appreciate your good-natured discussion, but disagree: my statements were factual, and it's not strange to present hubris as an indicator of untrustworthiness.

You could indeed see yourself as being "fact-checked". But this doesn't mean the person attempting to persuade you of their point of view thinks of themselves as a "fact-checker", …

I read it as: self-annointed arbiters of truth demean themselves by their own definition as such. Trustworthy sources of information accept the limits of their knowledge and recogn…
