jaseg on Nostr: The way they spin that into basically "tomorrow you can buy this!" in the press ...
The way they spin that into basically "tomorrow you can buy this!" in the press release is pretty gross. I think press releases like this, and the resulting journalistic articles that regurgitate the overhyped claims, failing to notice the bullshit, are really harmful to science communication in general. This shit erodes trust, because it leads to an endless stream of hypey press releases with very little real-world results to show in the end.
