"The most damaging medical hoax of the last 100 years" by OneSalientOversightin wikipedia

[–]dougb 2 points3 points ago

To be fair Jenny McFuckwit would've been laughed off as a crank were it not for Wakefield lending her anecdotes an illusion of credence. Why he isn't subject to multibillion dollar lawsuits I don't yet understand. The guy seriously needs to be bankrupted. He still rakes in profits from the scam.

Despite the allegations of misconduct and fraud, Wakefield continues to rely on the monetary and emotional support of fans who continue to support him.

Wait until you see what the cylinder head is made of. You may not want to sit down again while riding in case it explodes under your butt.

A windshield wiper used without water tends to scratch the shit out of what it's wiping.

vendor certs in my experience are popular with the liberal arts crowd who otherwise wouldn't be smart enough to get into engineering.

Michael Gove's biblical zeal is a ruse - The education secretary's plan to send a King James Bible to every school is a masterful tactic to keep us worrying about small change while billions are wasted elsewhere by JackIsidorein ukpolitics

[–]dougb 0 points1 point ago

It's hardly masterful. American wingnuts have been using the same ruse for decades. They actually collaborate frequently on this shit - especially on the old divide an conquer routine which seems most effective.

Title of "Engineer" in the UK? by AKiss20in AskEngineers

[–]dougb 0 points1 point ago

I could be wrong, but this practice of allowing anyone to denote themselves engineer is a fairly recent thing - started I think in the 1980's when everything went really pear shaped in terms of engineering output.

It's connected to losing their position in europe as a leading industrious nation to johnny foreigner i.e. germans swiss and french. Typically then used to denigrate and belittle the engineering profession because they simply can't compete.
