Money and freedom is quite nice :)

As a French I’m insulted by this title :p

I’m not an expert in that domain but I know people who are and, according to them, roundup is one of the (if not the) most studied compound, and all scientific studies done point to it being safe for use. I haven’t read the studies myself mainly because I’m not equipped to understand them frankly but can someone point to some evidence that roundup did result in this poor guy getting cancer :/?

Edit: look everyone who is downvoting, EFSA, the US EPA and ECHA have all looked at it and found that it’s safe. So maybe instead of downvoting me, find me a better study than what they did that show it isn’t.

I appreciate the link. I am going slowly through the article that I find interesting because I like graphs and structure, but I have no idea if any of it holds for actual physics and I didn’t know the man before. Now I have a better idea of why people where answering this to this post (although it seems a little bit exaggerated) :).

I think it’s nothing particularly weird, I’ve always assumed that there are spores in the soil and it happens when it gets a bit too much water, no? I don’t think they need to worry :)

I have used the exact sentence “broadcasting into the abyss” hahaha. It feels to me that everything is short lived and context-less

I have no idea how use mastodon effectively :/. Lenny has the advantage of article + discussion so there is a topic to follow. Mastodon/Twitter has always been too chaotic for me. Any advice on how to make it worth it and not just a massive mess x)?

https://pubpeer.com/ mentionned in the article is an interesting website that I will check out. However, peer review is supposed to be done by experts so I’m not sure how this website ensure that :).

I also found https://openreview.net/about interesting as a concept. Although it is a bit nerve wracking to have reviews public.

Such a stupid lie. A lot of policies are based today on this idea of nudges. I know in my company they tried to improve safety mindsets through that « science » and that it is all fake quite literally killed people.

Thank you so much! I was also advised to use dish soap with water :). Is that good?

Thanks! I know what to google now!
