“The hostility towards scientists that hampered ’s response was not as prevalent in , Fauci said, but warned the politics of divisiveness would always appeal to the minority who were sceptical of the science.

“Those who promote and can always find some outlier of a scientist or some of a public health person to get up in front of a hearing or in front of the television and say something that’s absolutely not true.”

My newest blog post on my .dev site. This one is titled "Falsehoods programmers believe about addresses and location data" and is recycled from an old Github gist of mine on top of some feedback from my Mastodon followers

I wonder if there are generative engines dedicated to synthesising outrageous in the styles of tRump, Putin, Musk, etc.

If you are a scientist and not completely indifferent to evidence-based science, you better run far away from NimwegenLab, where a boys club of cranks poisons the info sphere with & for social media exposure, instead of doing any actual science twitter.com/NimwegenLab/status

"Black & White" by David Guilbault

I wrote this song in 2010 as a warning about the Tea Party. It is even more relevant in today's toxic environment of widely-spread falsehoods.

"The truth is framed in black and white,
Getting starker every day.
Painters of lies try to cover our eyes
And keep them hidden from the grey
As they color what they say."
