Have you ever been in an anechoic chamber?
You talk and it seems like the sound goes off into a black hole.
Cue the crickets.

I would give you a Kudo Jeff but that would only encourage you. And YOU do not need any encouragement.

Add religion.
Many of these topics seem to thrive best in more polarized places where self amplifying echoes propagate forever. There are plenty of places on the internet for that.
The NI forums is centered around STEM and I tend to think that we are positioned slightly away from the low end of the Dunning-Kruger effect. Most of us have learned that engaging in controversial topics typically leads nowhere. The world is not a one-bit binary system, and sometimes having no opinion on a subject is a reasonable option.
I am happy to engage in any discussion that is evidence based and data driven and avoid conspiracy theories from the fringe corners of the internet. 😄

Define "Fringe corners"? 😉 This corner has some "fake news", for gosh sakes, 1 - 1 doesn't always equal 0!!!

Doesn't that theory predict that we'd think that?
I often see someone acting like a fool and think it's a shame that they don't recognize how silly they look. Then I think of all the people that are tons smarter & more successful than I am (most of you on this forum) and wonder how often the same is thought of me. 😄

For those who are relatively new to LabVIEW, the thought balloon of the Boolean character is showing an old style Boolean constant, before NI changed them at Altenbach's suggestion to the current style, called an "Altenbach Boolean"!
