@glyph Oooh, I wish. I don't think that text is online, unless you can find an excerpt somewhere in Google Books or whatever. The book is Martin Gardner's *Science: Good, Bad, and Bogus*, which he wrote sometime in the 1980s, but I believe much of it is an anthology of earlier writings elsewhere (a lot of it referred to pseudoscience from the 1970s, and holy moly, the 70s had some total bangers on that front). If I can find my copy, I'll quote the relevant part here.

@glyph Found it. Page 92 in my copy, in the chapter "Magic and Paraphysics". The context was the 1970s "paraphysics" fad, where a bunch of people doing what were literal magic tricks managed to fool a lot of people, including a lot of scientists:

"Any magician will tell you that scientists are the easiest persons in the world to fool. It is not hard to understand why. In their laboratories the equipment is just what it seems.... But the methods of magic are irrational and totally outside a scientist's experience. The general public has never understood this. Most people assume that if a man has a brilliant mind, he is qualified to detect fraud. This is untrue. Unless he has been thoroughly trained in the underground art of magic, and knows its peculiar properties, he is easier to deceive than a child. "

Gardner was an amateur magician, and he did a lot to popularize the work of famous magician-turned-skeptic James Randi, who spent most of his life unearthing magic-tricks-as-fraud.

The part "Most people assume that if a man has a brilliant mind, he is qualified to detect fraud. This is untrue." is what has stuck with me.

You ever notice that investigations for aviation incidents are always like "These three components failed simultaneously, at which point the pilot mistakenly followed the checklist for a slightly different failure mode, compounded by a miscommunication with air traffic control due to the proximity of another flight with the same call sign", and investigations for maritime incidents are always like "They forgot not to crash"?

일단 이란 외무장관이 미국과 이스라엘 그리고 동맹국 배 아니면 해협 통과 괜찮음 이런식으로 말을 하긴했나본데 이란측도 슬슬 빠져나갈 방법을 찾는것 같긴하군요 (먼산) 발언 자체는 사실 같은데 더 정확한것은 모르겠심다

I was thoroughly cleaning up and repairing this Thinkpad T420. It needed some fresh thermal paste and a new LCD screen, since the old one was broken. It was also of incredibly poor quality, a notorious flaw of this model, the new one is significantly better.

Since this is a 14 years old machine I also did an important diagnostic on it: a full memory test, and guess what I found?

The body of a Lenovo T420 laptop. It's open and the screen has been removed. The CPU heatsink and fan rae visible as well as the metal skeleton that gives this laptop its sturdiness.The screen of a Lenovo T420, opened up. The LCD panel has been removed and a new one is sitting over it.

The Trump bloodhounds have just won in court against an “Antifa cell” belonging to the "Antifa domestic terrorist organization.” Here are some useful antifa facts:

1. There is no antifa organization. You can't find it, join it, give it money, or identify any leaders.
2. There are likewise no antifa cells, outside of Pam Bondi’s fever dreams.
3. Even so, if you yourself are not antifascist, what's the matter with you?

1) be legally obliged to post a statement reading "The Court ordered an injunction against Dr and Mrs Schestowitz requiring them to delete/remove the allegations, and never in the future make the same or similar defamatory allegations."
2) don't delete all the allegations
3) repeat the allegations
4) act surprised that there are potential consequences
