Discussing Pseudoscience With Archeologist Flint Dibble
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRIYhWl01rE
I don't know what happened but pseudoscience and conspiracy theories started spreading like wildfire ever since the covid-19 pandemic. Fighting all of that misinformation online is not easy work, but thanks to people like this who take their time and effort to do so. Not all heroes wear capes!

Is water wet?

> The wetness of water seems obvious - but dive into the science and it's not so clear cut. We take a closer look at what wetness really is.
Answering this question turned out to be more interesting than I thought.

I really enjoyed this podcast episode because I've actually pondered about this question myself before, just like the 11 year old who called in and asked them. Considering the wide range of activities we humans can do just with the energy we get from our daily meals, it really makes you wonder how efficient we are as a species, compared to machines, other animals, etc.

@tblock
Technology is a tool and its up to the people how they use it. Parents can use programs like #TBlock to protect their kids from harmful/malicious websites, but they can also use it to restrict/censor useful information and educational materials. All I can do is to hope that the parents are wise enough to know what's best for their kids.BTW, there are even some contries that block these websites, so its good to have tools like #Tor to circumvent this censorship.
