    There’s no magic solution to misinfo and I fear that too many people think there is. Some improvements would be an education system that values civics as much as the tested subjects, more gov investment in research, far better gov communication.

    It's pretty hard to compete with social media. So you have any ideas?? These people who believe the misinformation will just keep on believing stuff they read online over anything else.

    Even when people may have different points of view, those debates are public & transparent, & in some cases really allow for the right kind of back & forth. I think that’s the need in such a polarized society - you have to make space for the back & forth.

    "In many occupations, an 88-year-old thinking about re-upping a contract through 2028 might get pulled aside by his close confidantes for an uncomfortable conversation. That is not the case in the Senate." 😠

    Hard to find a more concrete metaphor for the influence that sci-fi can have on real-world technology development. In a very real sense, the richest man on the planet builds rockets because he loved Star Trek as a kid.

    Captain Kirk is truly headed to space...at 90. William Shatner is set to board Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin New Shepard rocket next month, according to TMZ, becoming the oldest man to ever fly into space.

    Found the article that ID's me as an old millennial. The new generation of college students has no concept of computer file folders. Instead, they have a "laundry basket" model where everything is together and you pull out what you need by search.
