I like hacker news because it always provides different opinion and new aspect of any problem.

Thank you.

Learning to google and doing a cursory check of news using snopes would do the same.

Something I have noticed is that people do not seem to do either of those things. I have personally observed that people (with degrees, no less) would rather make an assumption about a topic in the presumed absence of information, rather than actually check that such informatio is available. In one case I was able to show that with a very, very simple google search consisting of two words the information was clearly available within 10 seconds. I do not think this is due to laziness or apathy, as they fail to do this even in cases where they are expending energy on arguing something.

How can you trust snoops their way worse. Is a comet made of ice? check mark false orange bad that is basically what every one of these say.
