| undefined_bob | ublx: thanks for shring the article. Its a really good one | 14:50 |
| undefined_bob | I wasn't aware about many things they explained in the article. I thought it was clear from the beginning that it was airborne | 14:51 |
| ublx | old article, though (2021). still, a nice write up | 14:51 |
| undefined_bob | yes, it is | 14:52 |
| ublx | well it seemed fairly clear from earlier stories about spreader events like the choir episode, and bus episode | 14:52 |
| ublx | but not clear enough to saturate media output early in the pandemic | 14:53 |
| undefined_bob | I cant even remember it that clearly but for me it was clear that masks will help and that 3-6 feet are not enough indoors | 14:53 |

| ublx | "never attribute to malice what can be attributed to ..." - still, hard to avoid suspicion of good-faith shortfalls in orgs like the WHO and CDC and governments generally | 14:56 |
| ublx | but this was linked by HN the other day: "Medicine is plagued by untrustworthy clinical trials. How many studies are faked or flawed?" | 15:00 |

| ublx | from the actual HN thread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37572394): "I'm not nearly qualified to make this argument, but has anyone ever suggested that we collectively do away with the principle that one must publish original research in order to receive a PhD? Maybe in something like entomology, there are enough undescribed beetle species out there to supply myriads of dissertations, but | 15:31 |
| ublx | in other fields it seems like you are just incentivizing trivial, useless, or fraudulent research." | 15:31 |
| ublx | running with this theme, perhaps a PhD should be awarded not for original research, but for a body of work exposing flawed research | 15:32 |
| ublx | if every freshly minted PhD on earth had spent the last 3 years illuminating flawed research, they'd be better researchers, and they'd surely put a sizeable dent in the replication crisis | 15:33 |
