Do you think that social media is the Holy Grail of pseudo knowledge? If yes, how can that be changed?
Sadly enough, there is no solution for that problem.
That has to do with humans and with the amount of obligations they have in life. The most obvious solution would be education, improved and higher education levels for all.
But, even educated and smart people also enjoy easygoing, not challenging content. Where social media has democratized the creation, and propagation, of such the problem has always existed and arguably in much worse forms: centralized media.
Most media organizations have a political position and thus bias. While that bias may not show in news coverage, it often shows in the topics they select to cover and the type of specialists they invite to talk/write about those topics. Even history channel has been know to romantize topics.
Because humans like being entertained and many refer, after a day of hard work, easy content over difficult topics. Whether more easy content - and thus pseudo truth - is found on social media than in centralized systems is debatable. News Corp and many a tabloid do not excel at fact-checking either, they do excel at pushing an editorial agenda and thus influencing their audience though.
Despots and demagogues cleverly make use of that as well.
But it is true that social media has made the consumption of “much content” much easier, and also cheaper, than before. At least the consumption of headlines.
Hate to say this, but YES!
As what I have seen on my Facebook news feed, it is unbelievable how people are so gullible and quick to believing what they read online. People no longer verify facts and would quickly jump into believing whatever they read especially if they love and agree with it.
This problem is magnified with how easy it is to create an account in social-medias. People who have no authority and/or credibility to spread news and information are acting like they do, all for the sake of followers, likes and influence which is very unlike before wherein the only source of information for people are credible ones like books, newspapers and television.
Also due to how easy it is to create a website now and since it pays really well. A lot of people took this opportunity and have started creating "click bait articles" just to earn some extra money. This I think is why pseudo-knowledge or false news is so rampant on social medias nowadays.
The only solution I think for this would be a law that forbids anyone who is unauthorized or don't have any credibility to disseminate information or a law where it prohibits anyone to spread Fake News. It would also be great if everyone verify first what they read online before sharing it.
Don’t you think that constantly highlighting (bolding out) few important bits contributes to a culture of only skimming and thus possibly even more adoption of barely fact-checked knowledge?
Now that you mention it, Yes I think so too!
Highlighting or emphasizing certain parts do create a culture of only skimming but I somehow think it is much more better than not highlighting or emphasizing your point at all. People now are usually in a hurry to read and will only skim a long article and/or mostly focus on the images being presented. Emphasizing your points makes the reader easily grasp the whole article.
I do apologize for the many bold parts in my answer in here though. :)
I don’t mind because I’m a reader. Yes, I *do* skim, and especially for subtitles, but I’m a fast [skim] reader and thus often find other words than those you highlighted.
Yet, if you look for example at the Daily Mail, they have an actual TL;DR: section above each article. Interestingly enough, it’s a news property which isn't know for having a highly intellectual audience.
Perfect example, picked from their actual front page: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6161741/Feds-probe-suspicious-money-transfers-Trump-Tower-meeting.html
Remember though that highlighting targets eyeballs and can thus be a mechanic to bias.
>highlighting targets eyeballs and can thus be a mechanic to bias
Can't agree more and is actually a common media tactic nowadays :)
Nice book excerpt in the Guardian today.

Do you agree that everyone can be content creator with Steem?
I believe if you're working towards being a successful content creator within Steem DApps then should focus on one simple idea. Showing up every single day and doing the work and first and foremost if you never been a content creator before then it'll probably take some time to figure out your simple idea.
When you show up and work the magic happens. One of friend who spend 12 months of creating various consistent youtube content before he found his simple idea.
So within Steemit I see many people are creating content even though they never have any intention to become a content creator in the first place. But Thanks to the Steem DApps because they're helping us to find the right place to be.
If you are a writer, write on SteemPress, Musing etc.
If you are great at talking, do a podcast on Dsound...
If you are someone who loves performing, do videos on Dlive or Dtube
If you're foodie then use Tasteem, If you're good photographer then post on SteepShot and so on......
This question didn’t need Steem. The Internet has democratized creation and (self) publication since more than a decade already.
Around 10-12 years ago, which was years after the popularity of Tripod, GeoCities and later MySpace, the Web 2.0 era truly kicked off and combined with ever cheaper Internet access, platforms like Blogger (blogspot), Flickr, Odeo (podcast platform pre-Twitter by Twitter founder Ev Williams), as well as the early days of YouTube made the UGC (User Generated Content) a reality for everyone. Even to those who didn’t want to invest in hosting their own site. In that same era WordPress.com also launched and allowed everyone to operate an own blog with without needing to use the then popular Blogger. Soon after Tumblr would also launch.
Obviously, the platforms mentioned are but the most popular ones and blogging was much older already. Before blogging it was already rather easy for forum operators to start a forum, most would use the excellent phpBB open source package, others would resort to the more platform/CMS focused open source PostNuke, while others would opt for paid platforms like vBulletin which came with a built-in CMS option.
It was around 2005-2007 though that faster Internet became more accessible and affordable to anyone. Combined with always more, and simpler to install platforms, the era of User Generated Content kicked off and everyone had options to become a creator.
Little later came Facebook, Twitter, YouTube went viral, and SoundCloud also became a mainstay.
Technically, the Internet is recursive and the Steem-ecosystem has started to replicate the history of the Internet. We are just past the MySpace era now, somewhere 2006-2007. We just had our own ‘Million Dollar Page’, SteemPixels some months ago.
Online... everyone can be a creator.
Yes definitely everyone can be a content creator because the STEEM dapps made this possible. If it were during the days when the dapps where not available I'd have said it's impossible, because steemit then was built to accommodate mainly the writers,
But with the inception of the dapps really everybody has a space no matter what they can so or not, be it singing performing, writing, or even writing reviews about food and restaurant or even photography.
And now most recently musing.io I however know that other dapps will surface and steemit will become even more decentralized by the day
I totally agree with everything you said above. Given enough time, anyone could become a decent-to-exceptional content creator here on Steem.
When I first stumbled upon the Steem platform, I honestly thought that this platform was not for me. I have no knowledge nor the experience needed in blogging and writing articles. I still remember back then during my first month of being a content creator wherein I still don't know how to properly format my posts and don't know how to correctly source the images that I am using. But over time, I learned many things due to my consistent blogging and writing. I might have even improved my writing and blogging skills here as I can now easily write a 500word article in less than an hour which honestly was very hard for me to achieve months ago.
So yeah, I believe anyone can become a content creator in here if one is determined to be one. I even gained loyal followers turned friends in over half-a-year that I am in here. :)
Yes, I am totally agree with you and I am strongly believe that every body have a creative power. Somebody discovered their creativity and somebody uncovered their creativity.
So, let's try to do something, Let's go ahead.
@hafizullah
A very very wise man on steemit said everyone has something to offer (surpassinggoogle). I heard things when I newly joined steemit and was looking for what I could offer to the community since I don't draw, sing, play any instruments and I don't design. But what I could do was interact to people well, write on any topic, compose poems and am also good with technology. So I decided to give up it a try and see anyone that works for me. The first three worker that I didn't bother to try out the rest
If you try what I did and feel that you still have no talent pick something out and develop it. I f you still feel like you aint going anywhere. Thanks to steemit, there are different dapps out there (platforms associated with steemit where you participate and get rewarded in steem) try out each and everyone of them. Something must work out for.
Got off your lazy and try something new. Remember "everyone has something to offer "
Why is Flouride put in our water supply?
Not the natural Calcuim Flouride but the toxic, synthetic Sodium Flouride which is considered to be a neurotoxin.
IMPORTANT! No. Preventing cavities isn't the answer, It's just a PR stunt that with the help of dentists became a fact. Countless researches have been done which without a doubt prove that people still have the samme issues with cavities in low and high flouridated areas.
Give me the real answer. Dig deeper :)
When it comes to "why" questions, we will certainly dip into speculations. Before we do, let's look at some facts about hydrofluosilicic acid and sodium fluoride, the substances used to fluoridate the water supply in the United States, Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Hong Kong, Ireland, Israel, Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Serbia, Singapore, Spain, the UK, Vietnam, and perhaps other nations. (Most other European nations have banned the use of water fluoridation because it is highly toxic, unneeded, and criminal as the populace has not consented to being medicated in this insidious manner.)
Let us look at some of the effects of ingesting fluoride, as well as some of the other toxic elements and chemicals introduced to the water supply along with it due to using impure sources of fluoride (industrial waste.)
The following information has been taken from https://drlwilson.com/Articles/fluoridation.htm, a good source of additional information on this topic.
In the doses that fluoridated water provides, fluoride is associated with higher rates of birth defects, cancer and immunosuppression, lower IQ of children, dental and skeletal fluorosis, and neurological problems. It has also been shown to cause increased bone fractures, cataracts and infant mortality, and some 20 other health effects. A study in Brain Research, vol. 784:1998 showed that fluoride in the water fed to rats increased the absorption of aluminum into the rats brains, causing alterations in the brains similar to Alzheimer’s Disease. Also, fluoride is highly corrosive. Several studies in Massachusetts and elsewhere found higher levels of lead in the drinking water in fluoridated areas. This is most likely due to corrosion of lead pipe joints as a result of the corrosive chemical.
A new study also showed that fluoride accumulates in the pineal gland. This is a hormonal control center and causes severe imbalances in some sensitive people. The work, titled Fluoride Deposition In The Aged Pineal Gland was done as a PhD thesis by Jennifer Luke and published in Caries Research. It can also be found at www.fluoridealert.org.
The fluoride itself isn’t the only problem. The chemical used to fluoridate is not pure. Hydrofluosilicic acid and sodium fluoride are industrial wastes, by-products of the phosphate fertilizer industry. This was challenged by the fluoride promoters in Ohio, but later they were forced to admit this is the truth. They contain traces of lead, arsenic, mercury, kerosene, napha, and other pollutants from the smokestack scrubbers of phosphate factories. They also contain radioactive elements.
Fluoridation of the water supply is a completely insane practice that has never been proven to have any health benefits and is a criminal form of medicating the populace without consent. If I had to speculate about why it is done, it is most likely to weaken and stupefy the general population so they are easier to manipulate. The day water fluoridation is halted worldwide will be a great victory for the progression of humankind.
Thanks for this answer @d-pend This is exactly the kind of answer I wanted to get but sadly Musing.io curators seem to be under the influence of all of the years of propaganda on this subject. I already know all of this and much more but, I wanted to see what kind of answers I would get. Glad to know that you are informed on this.
You are from the US if I recall correctly, right? How heavily is water flouridated where you live, and how do you combat it? Thankfully, in Europe the practice of water flouridation is not so popular.
Btw, check this video out if you want to find out more on flouridation.
The guy that made it also makes a ton of great videos on many interesting subjects you might enjoy watching. He is on steemit also with the same username.
I knew you were aware when you asked it the way you did but I still wanted to respond to hopefully spread some awareness. Like you, I was forced to conclude that Musing moderators were "drinking the kool-aid" on not just this topic, but many, which has greatly dimmed my enthusiasm for the service. You can tell by the mediocre replies they often choose to give huge upvotes. I am not trying to be elitist or mean, either. Whoever is doing the curating simply doesn't have the expertise beyond mainstream views on certain topics. Thankfully, I rented large amounts of SP for specific situations like these.
Yes, I'm from the U.S., and it varies how heavily it's done state-by-state and county-by-county. My hometown in Texas actually has smaller amounts than many other places. About where I live right now, I'm not sure, because I haven't drank any tap water for at least the past 7 years. I won't drink water at restaurants, either.
Unfortunately, I am forced to use it to wash dishes and bathe, although I do the latter sparingly even though most Americans are obsessed with showering every day. I typically cook with and drink Spring Water, even though it is not perfect.
It's very, very sad how harmful this practice is, and I know it will end eventually. The calcification of the pineal gland and lowering of IQ is among the worst, because it leads to people being cynical about humanity thinking they are stupid, but they are really brilliant, just held down.
Yes, much of Europe is the ray of light (at least on this topic.) Ozonation is an incredible way to filter water using just oxygen, but it costs much more. I hope this and other methods will be adopted in the future. I'll check out the person you mentioned, thanks!
Glad that we are on the same page on this and most likely many more simmilar subjects. How deep in the rabbit hole are you? WHat's the worst thing you have found out?
Yes, sadly, that is currently the case but, like all other Steem based dapps Musing is just a baby. Needs a lot of time to mature. The problem with curation may be fixed in the future. I talked to them in discord and the curator in question was very rude about it. Think it was his cognitive dissonance talking, not him.
I'll keep asking this kind of questions on Musing anyway. The information about the subjects that really matter should be discussed on Musing no matter if their curators can't understand them. That's why I'm glad to have people like you answering my questions.
Hope that you will find my questions in the future and drop some knowledge bombs. You should answer the one I'm about to post now. Who coined the term "conspiracy theory" and why? I'm sure that you know the answer :)
Oh ye, and thanks for the support with xlent and a nice play with letters in the username. I knew it was you straight up :)
There is no digging deeper without getting into the scientific research. That will not alleviate concerns or remove doubt without investing substantial time into the topic. What I can do is to show which countries are using fluoridation and which are not.
It is a widespread myth that only western countries fluoridate their water. The fact is that most western countries DO NOT fluoridate their water. Almost all of the Europe doesn't fluoridate their water. Even Japan doesn't use artificial water fluoridation and that is as East as you get.
I find this remark very stupid - 'after the emergence of industrial revolution the dental problems increased so much that governments started to use fluoridation to curb the endemic'. Somebody needs to remind these morons that industrial revolution started in Europe and they themselves are not using artificial flouridation.
We need to stop this whole argument about government trying to solve our tooth problems from the water we drink. A government that can't protect the children from its own child protection services is sure is a hell not 'protecting' you teeth.
Take look at these results:
It feels like that there is no patter to it. Fluoridation or no fluoridation, it seems that countries of both kinds are struggling with tooth problem.
To me it feels like that people don't really need it since the problem is not going away by doing it. It makes me wonder why they are trying so hard to keep this scam going. The only logical conclusion is that they have something going on behind the scenes - and its not about solving our tooth problems.
Good conclusion. If you want to know more about Flouride I suggest you watch this short video about it. It will blow your mind.
Fluoride is put in water supply in order to reduce the occurrence of dental related health issues like tooth decay or bacterial growth in the mouth.
Fluoride is a compound of fluorine which is a naturally occurring element found in ground water and mineral rocks. When put into water supplies, it helps prevent tooth decay and is so effective in doing this that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention named it one of 10 great public health achievements of the 20th century.
Taking into account the huge amount of time that is spent on tooth related treatments yearly in the United States(51-161million school/work hours), fluoridation of water is a healthy and cost effective means of reducing these numbers, and according to the American Dental Association, the life time cost of fluoridizing your water is less than the cost of one dental filling.
Basically, the idea behind putting fluoride in water is to prevent and reduce the occurrence of tooth decay in both children and adults.
Didn't you read the description of the question? Your answer is very far from the truth and it's a shame Musing.io upvoted it as if its a correct answer. Please at least watch this video for a little eye opener.
Does a perpetual motion machine exist? If not, do you think it will ever be possible to invent one?
I don't believe that a perpetual motion machines PMM exists, although I've seen videos on YouTube of people who have claimed to create PMMs. It fundamentally impossible to create one simply because of the fact that to create one would be to break one if not all the laws of thermodynamics.
First this first, the first law states that energy can never be created nor destroyed, but it can only be converted from one form to another.
Energy input = Energy output
So for a machine to move forever, then all the energy that starts it's movement must not only do that, it must also keep it moving. If that was possible then maybe we'd be able to make a PMM.
Theoretically speaking, even if we could somehow circumvent the first law, the second one is iron clad. It states that the entropy of an isolated system can never decrease over time. In the case of PMM what it's trying to say is that no matter how efficient the system is, some parts of the energy will escape due to the interaction of the machine with external forces like wind and moving parts which in turn will build up friction and that will end up creating heat. Thus, the heat created will lead to energy loss and if all the energy that was used to make the machine move isn't available, then it will inevitably stop moving eventually.
It's just not possible, at least not right now.
What about magnets? They don't need an input to create energy when they repel each other on same poles. Imo, we should be able to create a PMM using magnets.
That would be possible if the strength of magnets didn't reduce over time. Seeing as they do, then it's not possible.
How is that an issue? They can always be replaced with new ones. Considering it doesn't happen that often and that they produce mroe electricity than they cost to replace it would still be profitable to make such a machine.
This is where you're getting it wrong, using a magnet would require precise calculations and once the magnetic force drops by a single percent, those calculations would be wrong. If a PMM was made that had a magnet that was supposed to pull a steel ball in its direction at a particular speed so that the ball can fall through a hole in front of the magnet, if the magnetic force of the magnet reduces even a little bit, that speed reduces and the other mechanisms of such a machine would equally suffer for it.
Why are some people envious of others success?
Feeling envious
Have you at any point asked yourself for what good reason a man may feel desirous of one of his companions and not of a VIP who is more mainstream?
Truly there are heaps of situations where individuals begrudge superstars however for what reason don't individuals feel as envious towards them as they feel towards the individuals who work with them?
In addition, have you seen that an architect can infrequently wind up envious of an effective specialist while he can turn out to be extremely desirous of another fruitful designer who works with him, what is that about??
envy and rivalry
The response to these inquiries are straightforward, we just feel desirous when we surmise that we are in an immediate rivalry with the individual we are envious of.
The person who feels desirous when one of his coworkers is applauded by the director is really anxious of losing the advancement to that contender.
The man who feels envious when his better half converses with other men is anxious about the possibility that that one of the other men wins the opposition and takes his significant other from him. In a connections the sentiments of envy can make your relationship accomplice awkward and can bring about completion the relationship.
In the event that you are desirous of a film star then most presumably you are worried about the possibility that that he catches the consideration and win the hearts of your companions and of the individual you like. In the event that you thought of the connection among you and the motion picture star as an opposition for consideration then you will clearly feel desirous of him.
Envy and shortcoming
Is envy an indication of shortcoming? Indeed as a rule it is.
You will never feel envious of somebody except if you believe that he is an intense contender and except if you are scrutinizing your own capacity to beat him.
The more envious you feel towards a man the more feeble you think you are contrasted with him. On the off chance that somebody continued talking in the face of your good faith and continued saying awful things in regards to you at that point don't feel terrible in light of the fact that by and large this can be viewed as a verbal admission that you are superior to him.
In the event that you wound up feeling envious of other individuals at that point think of it as an opportunity to begin changing things about yourself as opposed to censuring or detesting them.
Well it's human nature to want what you don't have, one of the core principles of economics is that human want is insatiable. It's only natural to envy someone who's successful or better yet, more successful than you are and this is because he/she has more than you do.
When you see someone that's more successful than you are, you can react in 3 ways
1: Be happy for them: These days, this has become the least popular reaction because most people don't want anybody to do better than they are
2. Envy them: From time immemorial, even dating as far back as Cain and Abel, Jacob and Esau, human beings have always envied people who are doing better than them, simply because we want to do better than everyone else. People that envy others often don't want the people they envy to do badly or not be successful, they just want to be more successful than they are.
3. Be passive about it: Some people just don't care and whether or not you're more successful than they are doesn't matter to them. They'll go on living their lives like as if nothing happened.
Exactly the question I am asking myself all over again... But, whatever someone does that is considered a bad behavior, the root of that is in EGO. EGO is our worst enemy and we are not thought enough in our schools as a kid about the topic of EGO.
EGO kills humanity, in one sentence. It literally destroys everything around you and making you feel better about it. It seems not that logical that you can do that, but EGO is that powerful. I know it's hard to see your EGO, and for someone, it's even hard to admit that they have EGO, but it's the ''thing'' we need to first learn about so that we can fight against.
So, my blame falls to educational system that is shaping our kids into same boxes, killing creativity, not teaching kids about emotional intelligence and not teaching them about the EGO... and many other things...
Envy is an instinctive feeling experienced by every human being. Buunk (2012) argues that envy is a response to others who have the success, success, skills and quality of life that we want.
Sometimes jealousy can grow in a nearby environment such as a family where brother and sister can emerge social jealousy. Or for example envy can happen to see friends own what we don't have.
A study by taking data through questionnaires and interviews shows that most people are dishonest in answering whether they feel jealous or do not see the success of others. However, in a meeting between clients and psychologists, it was found that the actual disorder that appeared was often triggered by jealousy or social jealousy that was not easily recognized.
I observe the social trends that occur, why do easy people feel jealous of the success of others? Even though we say "No, I'm not jealous! "Actually there is a part of a small heart that is instinctively jealous of others.
This is common. People compare themselves to others because of vanity and bitterness. Pride? Yes. But I guess the most obvious reason why people envy on other's success is greed. They want to be in the position where they want to experience that feeling.
It is a human nature and a very common trait for people who are evil. They got envy because they want to be in the position. They got envy because they feel they deserve it more than you. They got envy most importantly because they are evil. Their hearts are filled with hatred and bitterness.
Success is defined by a person's hard work and a little bit of luck. If they fail to achieve that, they start worrying on the things around. They wish to be the person as they want, but they fail to achieve it that's why they got envy on people who achieved success in life - simply because they failed to achieve it.
One advice, be passive. Don't dwell on their shits. Focus on your life and they're just a little stumbling blocks that hinders your way. Be focused and stay in line with your goals.
It is normal to feel a little sad or worried when you see others all around you making it big in their respective fields in life and you just seem to be stagnant. It is such a saddening feeling that gradually develops but if it is not controlled, you begin too desirous of what they have and jealousy comes in crowning the whole envy thing which is really unhealthy..
People turn to be envious of others out of sheer jealousy to see others making it and not them. This is very vommon in humans nowadays as jealousy has been the character of the day that friends became so jealous of their friends that they even end up harming them. Envy and jealousy are two things that floe together and where you find one, the other's presence is not a doubt.
Also, so many people have been pushed to be envious of others because of pressure imposed by their families, loved ones and society on them. Many people out there who were content and leading content lives have turned to be envious as a result of pressure imposed on them by the society. It is common to see how parents lash out on their cgildren comparing them to their other mates who are very successful. These only mounts pressure on such children and only promotes envying in them.

Really for me, I no longer believe in any tool. The more I study use, technical analysis and other tools. Always something bad happens, the markets fall and I have to sell and wait to buy again.

Why should I vote a witness?
Witnesses are the governance of the Steem blockchain.
All decisions about the Steem blockchain, its mechanics, its future and for example how the rewards function are made by the Top 20 witnesses.
If tomorrow the SBD is truly pegged, that’s a decision only the witnesses can make.
If rewards are changed to 50% for creator and 50% for curators, that’s a decision only the witnesses can make.
The same applies to HardForks. The upcoming hardfork is not the decision of Steemit Inc, they prepared and released the code (in collaboration with witnesses, stakeholders, and community developers). But the acceptance of the HF is done by witnesses. If less than 2/3+1 witness deploy the HF on their server the HF is rejected. HardForks require super majority (2/3 + 1 vote).
The Steem community is a community owned and operated blockchain but the witnesses are its government.

Withnesses are one of the most valuable members of the Steem community, without whom the Steem blockchain wouldn't function. They are expected to run a block-producing Steem node running 24/7/365 and provide a correct ongoing price feed of the value of STEEM in US dollars, set the mininum Steem Power deposit to create an account, set the APR% for the Steem Dollar interest rate and many other things.
It's of crucial importance that you:
Why?
Because only if all, or at least most Steem users have handed out their withness votes can we assure that our top withnesses really are really the most trustworthy and valuble members of the community which have nothing other than the success of the Steem blockchain on their mind.
If you don't excercise your right to choose a withness, some that don't deserve to be ranking high on the withness list might get there.This is very important as the top Steem withnesses make a huge amount of money and we wouldn't want to have someone that doesn't have the best interests of our community to be raking in so many rewards. Wouldn't we?

? Why would this happen and what would it change to the current situation with smartphones? Would you like that to happen?
Android and iOS have been the leaders of smartphone OS systems for so long that it's hard to picture anything possibly taking over from them. For a randomly and completely new OS to take over then that OS has to provide a service which the two previously stated OSs dont, and that's not likely at all.
Frankly I can't see this happening but if it did then then it would add some spice to the smartphone market. With blackberry and windows operating systems both completely being phased out of existence Android and iOS haven't really had any competition apart from themselves.
I think it's possible but not likely for something like this to happen because taking a page from Nokia and their Symbian OS which was the pinnacle of smartphone operating systems only a few years ago but is none existent now, I'd say that anything is possible in the smartphone market.
I wouldn't mind if this happened but seeing as both iOS and Android are constantly fine tuning their user experiences, it would be awful hard for another OS to take over.
