against spreading of pseudo-scientific highly abstract disconnected from reality unverifiable utter bullshit, like the laws against spreading of porn.

are taking over the world. Simply by naive [belief-based] popular memes and population numbers. This is exactly how Brexit and Trump election has been tilted - just show some catchy internet memes to vast majority of uneducated idiots.

Do you use it by default?

An educated person would have a healthy aversion to that kind of utter bullshit which uneducated far-right and conservatives consume on daily basis. Education, among other things, gives one ability to correctly classify, mark and filter out large amounts of bullshit, significantly reducing the burden of being bombarded by lowest quality emotionally charged visual and linguistic bullshit (memes). Simpleminded lower half of a population does not even know that what they take seriously is an utter, primitive bulshit memes, crafted especially for them by those who are a bit smarter.

Never heard of them!

This only means that the model is an oversimplified, abstract bullshit, which is, basically, what all the statistics-based models of complex stochastic, partially observable systems are. The fundamental principle is that one single major factor missed or overlooked makes a model fundamentally flawed, but still useful to gain attention and funding. One single flaw in logic makes a philosophical system worthless, but it does not stop publishers and teachers. Estimated probabilities could never be explanatory by definition. Only for simplest, fully-observable, deterministic systems like a dice, could be adequately modelled with probabilistic models, and even those are nothing more than a disconnected from reality simulation, which in principle could tell nothing about what exactly the next outcome would be. Probabilistic modeling is nothing but a new metaphysics. A way of secure a decent living as an astrologer in a court of some government.

This only means that body size and metabolic rate are not the major factors, which is, rather, obvious fact. The devil is in the details and with wast complexity and diversity of life literally tens still unknown factors could play a significant role. For example, a better liver which could resist more toxins together with a better immune system, together with a some unique cell repair mechanism and vuala. Hipsters are looking for quick fixes, which are not available for wastly complex systems.

> 1/10,000 daily chance of mortality do you realise that this quantity and related abstract concept is disconnected from reality, explaining nothing bullshit?

NodeJS My bet they got fucked up with dependencies or even got hacked in the process of upgrade.

there must be tens of thousands of pilots and flight attendants dying from cancers in oncological centers around the globe.

How will they remove the stains from tires? Regular cleaning?

Basically, the same like some self-imposed yoga teachers. There is nothing to teach in yoga, there is nothing much to manage in software. Of course, one could always invent absolutely necessary rituals, practices, routines and then attribute every single positive thing to these rituals. Religions perfected these techniques for a millenia.

LIke any other kind of parasites management ruins the ecosystem in which it lives. Linux kernel has no management, only reasonable set of rules and procedures.

Motorcycle and car industries evolved a standardized way to control various aspects of a vehicle without taking hand of the steering in case of a bike and do a short, simple movement without looking in the case of a car. Ruining most of these reasonable, evolved ways of control *while keep looking ahead* is indeed stupid.

Using words like Orwellian and Creepy is pseudo-intellectual hipster's bullshit.
