Mx Verda<p>It sounds like Sabine Hossenfelder is inaccurately diagnosing (some) real problems (and some false ones) as being scientists' fault directly. <br>The problems are a capitalist (profit-focused) failure of resource allocation. This includes a structure of education that incentivises "work-ready" skills over critical analysis. <br>You don't need to be an expert!

Maggie Maybe<p>I feel like an old person screaming at the clouds, but the banks are getting really weird lately.</p><p>If you follow me I’m sure you’ve seen me rant about <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/Discover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Discover</span></a> card changing what they will allow people to dispute.</p><p><a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/USAA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USAA</span></a> lowered my credit card limit & didn’t tell me. I wouldn’t be sure of it if I didn’t have an old statement to look at because it’s the same old limit from a few years ago, but they did.</p><p>I’m also pretty sure that they used to show the running total under the transaction description and amount, and it’s gone now. This is confusing because I just made a payment, that shows pending, and I can’t tell if the new amount is after the payment or not until after it posts, but I’m pretty sure that was the balance before I made the payment. </p><p>And <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/Wallgreens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wallgreens</span></a> is a pharmacy not a bank, but I still think it’s shady AF that they took the retail price off the pharmacy print out so I have no idea what my medications cost without insurance until I get my EOB. I like knowing what these medication’s cost. Having this information made me decide that getting 10 mg of sumatriptan is absolutely stupid because six of those cost Medicare $800 when it’s less than $80 for six 5 mg & I can just get two of those instead (even though I pay two copays that way they’re only $4.15 so it’s worth it to not drain <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/medicare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>medicare</span></a> unnecessarily.)</p><p>Am I just an old person <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/screaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>screaming</span></a> at clouds now? </p><p><a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/rant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rant</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/grift" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>grift</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/banking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>banking</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/CapitalismIsAScam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CapitalismIsAScam</span></a></p>
