🔬⬇️ science: statements asked like questions - the raised voice at the end of the headline. "right"? .... data generation has multiple layers and a secondary one is banked around "personal opinion" and "consensus". when there is little to no original policy, the validator team metrics of eth default to psychological testing/temperature-taking. the more in the weeds individuals get - the more pressure to discover amplifies. when most news is driven by social metrics - you need to be clear-eyed about the implications of your selections. if you automate your footprint - and you are not available for updates to your footprint, or allowed, you're subject to whatever psychological profile was last-available to the automation.
