So Hater news censored this post by flagging it -- just like Facebook and Youtube censored discussion of the lab leak! Hacker News is officially part of the MSM.
not surprised this was flagged. Anything that questions the MSNBC/CNN political orthodoxy gets flagged on HN. That's not "inclusive." How did all the tech nerds of SV become woke sjw's?
_IF_ Covid-19 is the result of a lab leak on research that Fauci funded and promoted AND he colluded w/ a group of scientists to hide this fact, it literally is the greatest conspiracy of our generation.
It isn't a big if. The recently released e-mails support this line of reasoning but don't confirm it. To argue the opposite of this, you should have better than ad hominem attacks.
It isn't muckraking. Fauci has a clear conflict of interest. Further he argued in favor of GoF research while acknowledging it could lead to a pandemic. He literally wrote that in an academic paper.

It is like the early Internet and you are like one of the old telco guys I worked w/ in 2000 who said people would never make phone calls on the Internet.
Smart contract platforms are only four years old. Only in the last 12 months have we seen significant throughput on public chains like Solana and Avalanche.
This post and the comments has convinced me that all the weirdoes and revolutionaries have left HN. It is now dominated by statist near-boomers concerned about the youngsters trampling the lawn.
Sure Bitcoin is boring but so is gold. If you weren't interested in gold in the first place you likely aren't interested in Bitcoin either.
The proof-of-stake, smart contract platforms are truly exciting. Stable coins and Uniswap are real innovations w/ more to come.
