Ten years after the first gravitational wave detection, a new suite of instruments has captured distinctive ringing signals before and after a black hole merger.
US press still calls evolution a “theory”, while labs use it every day to select compounds and proteins with any traits they want. But the good news is that funding was all cut.
What pisses me off most about the “evolution is only a ‘theory’!” machiavellianism/gaslighting, is that it’s calling all farmers who breed their own crops or animals liars , and the farmers are every bit as rural as the Republican-strongholds warring against education of considered-reasoning, scientific-method, etc.
IF selection, natural or intentionally-induced, didn’t alter the resultant-population,
THEN farmers wouldn’t have any reason to invest in doing it!
2-facedness/gaslighting seems to be a hard-limit, for me…
People wonder why USA is full of scientific illiterates while “scientific” publications push pseudo-scientific headlines.
(Not especially mad at popular mechanics though. They’re better than most. Just sick of this BS everywhere.)
